Hello all,
Here is recently acquired badge for your interest.
It is bimetal as described in KK1694 and has both the JRGAUNT/LONDON tablet and a stamped Rd.No.648797.
As this is the first Gaunt badge I have with such a number, what is the significance of this?
Cheers,Tinto

It could be the registered design number. This number would indicate the year 1915.

That's good to know.

Did you sell this badge on?

I have the same badge, with the same number.



Kind Regards,

Unless the plaque has moved, voiding altered along with braze spill and stain changes then they are different badges.

well spotted - I had originally assumed the number was a regimental number & not a registered design number as stated. RTFP.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious
