Mike,
Large 10th GR is plated on the front but appears white metal on back. Small 10th GR is chromed with clipped slider. RGR is 'new metal' marked F&S behind crown.

I thought it may have been the anodised version. Very scarce beast.

Sorry, duplicated !!!



I know that there are about 28 KLR badges that I hope to find

(as I'm writing a book on them, I would be satisfied with decent photographs, dimensions, weights etc etc)



Good safety,
Good Christmas
good hunting...
