Hello Roger,

Not good news this time around I'm afraid.

The voiding at the bottom of the badge points to it being a copy of the type sold by the museum.

It would be nice to think that this was void was added to enable collectors to distinguish a genuine badge from a copy.

As for the MM, please see this thread:

Regards as always.

Ry
