Default GM Artists Rifles

Looks OK from the front IMO.
But the back has very poor definition.
Not sure what to think of this one, any comments welcome.
Thanks Tony.

This the ‘Minerva with eyeliner’ which I’m certain was used to produce original badges inc. the scarce BB Artists Rifles. However in my belief has also been re-struck from the original die to a limited degree.

Your badge is in my belief such a restrike.
