Hi Dominique, Rhodesian i think, you will have to ask more knowledgeable souls if they are original or not. Regards Mark

It doesn't look quite right for standard Rhodesian but very very close. The lion is spot on and the wing shapes pretty close but the Rhodesian ones I found all show a yellow cross in the lower part of the shield, while this one seems to be a Pokemon. [Sorry!] Or at least a yellow animal of some sort. Very odd.
OTOH, the back looks about right for a period piece, so probably not a joke or fantasy piece. Some variant on RRAF perhaps. |

Peter, the yellow cross, i think is in fact a 'pickaxe' denoting the mining part of the country's history, not 100% but sat in my brain! Regards Mark

Sadly I am really not keen on the material of these wings,front or back . I agree Rhodesian . But to my eye they look fake to me. Just my opinion .

Certainly in the wrong section with this badge, but, I think that is quite a nice example, very different than those in post three and eight, which do not look original.

The 'pickaxe' looks like a cross between "Orville the Duck"(I wish I could Fly !) and "Pudsey Bear"
