SA Sports Badge - the usual question

[KatL.]

Hello....
another question from me...
Common problem, but no solution, is this SA sports badge bronce or gold? Looks like gold to me, although theres almost none left. But one can be mistaken.
What do you guys think?
And thank you for reading this and helping me out!!
Regards,
Kat

maybe if you put it in correct forum you might get a better answer?

Better to determine if you show reverse. Looks Bronze to me.

here comes the backside (the pin was obviously replaced)

and yes, it might have helped if i put this in another forum but it rather seems like i didnt and people help me anyway. sorry if this isnt the right forum.

Definitely Bronze

awwwww... oh well, there wouldnt have been much use in a gold one with all the guilding rubbed off and a cheaply replaced pin anyway. Thank you very, very much for your help.

No problem. Quite often the only way to tell the grade of many of these badges is by looking at the hinge and / or catch. They usually give it away.
