Odd looking eagles, the necks have more of a swan appearance!

Having little knowledge of these badges, given the odd looking necks, I would have assumed one of two things, either:
a. They are reproductions. or b. They are locally (bazaar) made. Most bizarre indeed.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply or suggest that they are. It was just my inexperienced observation of the odd design, that if I had found them in a box or on a stall, thats what I would have thought.

Michael can you post a pic of the backs. I think they are bazaar made looking more like Vultures and using white embroidery. They are unlike any other commonwealth badges I have seen. What was the service dress they were removed from - any labels?
