Default 1st Cadet Battalion KRRC question

Gents,
I have seen cap badges for this battalion that are solid and those that have voids
beneath the Celer Et Audax tablet.

Are both versions legitimate and if so, is one earlier than the other?

Thank you all, I very much appreciate this forum and its members.
I have learned a great deal from you all.

Todd

As far as I know both are genuine but there is no record of whether the void has any date significance. A Q/C version also exists.
