Default The Top 3 Rarest CEF Infantry Cap Badges Are! REVISED with POLL

Hello everyone!

This is the revised edition so bare with me!

I am on a fact finding mission to see what the 3 rarest CEF Infantry Cap Badges are!

I am conducting a poll this time to see % wise to see whether or not other CEF Badge Collectors (1 through 260 No Corps Badges!)

All opinions are welcome if your not in agreement. Please substaniate your reasoning!

One reason for me personnally I have picked the following was the quest for the next holy grail! Considering low recruitment for example but there were other units that had low recruitment/numbers but badges seem to be in abundance! i.e 246th How sometimes difficult it was to obtain the badge in the condition alone!

In light of Controversy / RARITY surrounding the 9th Bn CEF badge and its true rarity. I am excluding it from the poll! A badge so RARE as it is cursed with so many fakes!

IMHO

Rob, why is the 9th so rare, It had 1100 men, most cef bn's had less. Was it disbanded or broken up? I don't know much about cef, history-wise.
