I picked up another variation Italian cap skull badge as used by the Black Brigade. This one is pretty flimsy and can be easily bent with your hands. It has less detail than some of the others in my...

No worries JMM, I would have bought it anyway if I had found it in a search. These type of items really need closeup scrutiny in hand to know for sure. I often gamble with smaller priced items...
