Smile New rm sq badges

Hi Guys,

Does anyone have a list of the new SQ badges the RM use?

Noticed they are all in this new synthetic thread and the stars & crowns have gone.

Any info greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Jim

No

Mine is the new type with no letters.

Have seen this one on ebay, bullion type but looks fake to me.
