Default Nasty Looking 9th CEF

Not like any 9th Battalion badge I've ever seen.

Not a badge I would want in my accumulation. What is with the overly long wire on one side of the overlay and the lack of the other one?

Not even one I would like to have as a hole filler, and most certainly nothing like my 9th Bn Offrs that is pictured in the CEF Gallery.

Default Copy

All:
So I get that some people want to make a copy of a badge and some people are very good at it. There are some badges around that might even fool the experts. But if you are determined to make that copy then why not copy the best of examples. Further why not take a couple of minutes and smooth out the edges. Seems to me to make a great reproduction badge you want to start out with the very best available. The technology of copying will then take over and do the rest for you.
