      That's what I assumed Jack.

        Another AAC Badge!

        Been going through the threads but can't find this one. Note the reverse where the metal has been machined flat, particularly back of the crown, leaving a flat rim. Badge has a slight twist to it. Possible restrike? Any ideas? Thanks guys. Roy

                You're welcome Roy!

                If you would search the forum for posts from Ade about the XXI independant para coy you will find pictures of an identical badge.

                Cheers, Luc

                      Luc,
                      While you are giving good news out, perhaps you could take a look at this one for me. Possible postwar, fake or the slightest chance it maybe good ? ...didn't pay a lot for it so dont hold back.

                              Hi Greg, well, that is a new one on me. Very strange?

                              Cheers, Ade.

                                The good news is that I'm pregnant. The bad news is that your AAC badge is the most common replica though the lugs are a bit funny.

                                Cheers, Luc
