Although not authorised in Australia the battery had them done locally so they conformed to the RA practice of wearing brass titles.

Out of curiosity, as I can't see your AVC title well, does it appear to you that the AVC title is actually a modified AMC die with the legs of the 'M' removed?

Thanks Keith for the info on the RAA title, I thought it was a local made Egyptian title. I have attached an image of the AVC title, looks good to me???
