Hi guys,

I just acquired this. It has a round ‘O’ so would I be correct in assuming it’s a re-strike?

Thanks,

Yes, that is a typical UK 'reproduction'.

Re-strike would imply that particular die was used to make original badges. It was not.

I would like the opinion of the forum please, is this bronze finish Officer's badge with oval "O" original?

Thank you, Keith
