If we are talking of different badges, I believe there are two versions of the KC RAOC cap-badge in Agonised Ally. These are the Pre-1949 and Post 1949 versions.

The pre-1949 badge is extremely rare and none are known among existing collections. A chap called, I think, R Butterfield (If you are still out there, please forgive me if I have got your name wrong!) came to my house in Farnborough, during the late 1980s, to show both the pre and post-1949 badges. But I have lost contact and have never seen another since.

The post 1949 badge, also a rarity and the original subject of this thread, has two variants. The actual badge is the same, but the sliders are different. One is a hairpin type and the other is with a standard 90° fixing to the badge.

Awra best to all
