Hi all,
I have purchased a Police badge today and there are some differences to the one I already had. These badges was issued over a fair length of time so I assume different makers may have been involved.
Can the forum have a look and share their thoughts please.
The height and width are the same to within a MM.
The 908 badge is one piece. Short lugs.
The 625 has the numbered centre added and is more nickel coloured and has longer lugs.
Cheers Ed

They both look okay to me. The white metal version is probably the older of the two.

Dave.
