203 and 205 are from the same maker. Note that you can find the beginnings of the serious flaws on the latter. It is definately not rusting away. I think thier die gave out and they used it until then end. Stamping steel can cause alot of wear on the die.
I have taken 205 apart and it is a hollow stamped badge. The reverse does not exhibit the flaws of the obverse.
Perhaps the reason the one still has the paper is because it was so horrible looking it was not issued or worn.pseudo-expert
