Note the small protrusion of metal on the (viewers) left plume from the front. This is seen on all the genuine curly scroll type, even the one is Alan’s album - https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...ictureid=62188 . Both badges are from the same die. |
Looks like these two badges were produced from the same dies, albeit a little more definition to the reverse of the scroll.
One small sweat hole, to the rear of the coronet (badge picked up at Granta Stamps & Coins, Magdelene Bridge, Cambridge, June 1991).
