Phil,

Let me put it this way, you can get the same identical badge with the same mark, die flaw on the scroll edge etc for much less money and some dealers have boxes of them.

This is also on ebay. I have no connection with the seller but this is the badge I would be buying if I was after an original

Notice how the orb stands proud of the crown. Lots of the Vol/TF Arty badges appear in bucketfuls like this!
