Thanks Andy, that one just looks "wrong" too, am glad I know what to look out for now.

Cheers,

Hi all, I have in my collection three versions of this badge all slightley different. I have also had my dubts as to which if any were fakes, I have however been told by more than one person that they are all good badges, even though they are all ever so slightley different.
