the badge on post #126 is of the same era, 1970? and has the 'victory' mark below I think.

Great badges shown in this thread. I really like these Guards badges and one can never have enough of these haha. Two more arrived today, both in well-worn condition with slight enamel loss. I am not certain which types these are as described in Azad's Guards Badges book though. The variations still puzzle me a bit but I am certain both are good.

Hi,
My contribution.

The badge of soft aluminum that has been added and washer fixation was replaced by a coin dated 1940.

THis is a very unusual variant of this badge.

I still need to get me a wartime guards badge, I have been meaning to get one for the longest time, but for some reason never got to it.

Amazing badges!
