RM Badge makers

[JoeW]

How many made Royal Marines badges QC and did all of them mark their name on the back.The reason I ask I just bought a RM the seller said "made by gaunt" but it isnt marked.

Hi Joe,
Not all modern QC Royal Marines badges are marked with the makers name
I have some in my collection with names and I have one in gold without a makers mark and one in bronze finish without a mark.

agree not all marked but some recent ones have Firmin on them and others come in sealed plastic bags marked Firmin & Sons Ltd.but the badges are not marked.
