Default Opinions on these two badges

Good morning. I have a feeling both of these are reproductions, looking for confirmation.

Thanks, Jaime

The extended beak is a modern die. The CCF does still wear the design. The fact it is marked silver suggests it is a fake.

This is the badge still in use. They wear the same design so at best yours is a CCF badge. I suspect the CCF sources them from the same makers as the ones on ebay.

Ya, the silver stamp smacks of a 'Badgeman' fake.
Cheers,
Alex
