I have two examples of this badge one with South Africa 1899-02 the other South Africa 1900-02.
Puzzling! Can anyone help with an explanation as to the difference.
Thanks Tony.

Hi Tony, According to John Gaylor's book Military Badge Collecting, one variety carries the correct dates 1900-02, while another struck in error is dated 1889-1902. regards John

Tony.

Further to the previous posts, both dates, (correct and incorrect) are found on badges constructed of the various metals and also appear on Officers' badges.

Regards.

Brian
