Default C.O.T.C. - Mount Saint Louis cap badge

Hello: I would like to know the scarcity of a Mount Saint Louis C.O.T.C. cap badge on a scale of 1 thru 10, with 1 being common. Did the school sponsor a Army Cadet Corps with a slightly different cap badge or was it strictly a C.O.T.C program that the school sponsored?
Thanks for any info.
Cheers.
Moe.

There is a cadet corps badge version and a COTC badge. The cadet badge is the same design, but with a "30" in the shield instead of "MSL" as on the COTC badge. Don't know about a 1-10 scarcity rating, but the cadet badge sells (if it sells) around $15-$30. The few COTC badges I've seen sell on eBay went for about $225.

Hello Moe, David has outlined the situation. Only additional comment is that a vendor at the
CSMMI show has a considerable number of the cadet badge at a very reasonable price. They were almost mint.
