Hi Christophe. Sorry, can't help you with a specific site, but you will come across them as they are everywhere. The problem for you is price. Another poster here has described them as 'worthless' which they may well be, but they certainly aren't valueless - people collect them knowing they are copies, and knowing that with the GAUNT. mark, and indeed the J.R.GAUNT B'HAM mark, they will be good quality copies. There is demand for them because originals (of this specific badge for example) are few and expensive if bought from dealers. I personally have no problem with trade in copies, only with the deceit of copies sold as original - and the best way to combat that is, as you are attempting, self education. So, I hope you find some somewhere at a good price. I attach a pic of a badge I have, by the looks of it, from the exact same die as the photo you have posted, but with an unmarked slider - a far more dangerous beast! Best regards, Mike
