Early Queen's officer badge
I have only had this superb quality badge for a year now and it is the only one I have that has a frosted or matte gilt finish, which is not very apparent in the photos, but quite noticeable in hand. Has anyone else seen such a finish? I would imagine that such finishes were not very durable and a few polishes would remove the effect, so there may be quite a few more out there which are no longer appear to have this.
