Hi cazack,
The 18th is the rarer voided version. I've not seen this with the letter "C" superimposed.
The 15th looks alright. There are many versions of these badges.
Would it be possible to show rear views?
Cheers, Tinto

Hi Tinto

please find backs as requested, they both have hex lugs which seems common with NZ badges
