    Thanks everyone for the vines. I’m securing a badge that was removed from a 71S.

    Looks to have been media blasted and maybe restored with paint? Certainly not in original condition. Hopefully it wasn’t presented as such.

    No, it’s not new. It’s a ‘restoration’ of an early badge. One pin has been replaced as well and done before the gold finish was applied.

    Thanks for the feedback. I don’t want a restored badge. This one was being presented as 100% original.

    My search continues.

    Check with ozbeycem (seller) on Ebay he has several original badges for sale, I have dealt with him in the past and have been very happy with my purchases.
