Hello Del, the badge is in the rarefied air. It is very difficult to find, the most likely source now being an older collection that is being broken up. It was a post 1920 militia re-organization badge, worn for a short time. A badge without the 9th inscription was authorized in 1929.
Valuation is one of those near impossible things to establish. It would depend on how the badge was offered and who was interested. Scarcity and demand play the key roles.
