Yes - but Cross it is not a comprehensive reference by any means.

No, but so far it is the best we have on CEF badges, and it confirms that a silver 128th is no great mystery.

Agree Phil, but I'm not sure who's saying a silver 128th is a great mystery?

Unfortunately Cross doesn't note whether there was any gilt detail on the silver plated badge they catalogued.
Regarding mine, now of course I will have to attempt to measure the badge volume but I fear that a graduated cylinder wide enough to fit the badge will not be accurate enough to register a small volume difference. Measuring the thickness in several locations with a tube micrometer might work... An engineering challenge Or not - I could awlays just scratch the back of the badge!
