Regarding 2 dies , I could understand that if it was only for the HMNZ Transports badge but the the fact that it also appears to have been the case with the 'silver' Admiralty badge is confusing.
Perhaps , the same person designed both badges and after an initial run the 'error' (too many balls !
) was noticed and new dies were made.......
......or the 10 ball badges were badly made copies !
