Steve I cannot say what you would pay for an original RNAS Officer cap badge, as the two I have I have had for many many yrs.

But I do know they are rare so I would think you would be looking at a good high price.

Also I do know its been repro'd & the repros I have seen are pretty obvious, they are just junk.

I really dont have any real idea what an original RNAS Officer cap badge would be going for now, but I saw a ratings badge back in winter go in the £100 range,
