        A nice original unmarked FCL IAB.

        But I will have to disagree with you regarding the grade. FCL is known for their use of a nice copper undercoating. The silver finish that is worn away on your badge reveals that coating
        Kind regards,

          Agree with Giel, a fine original F&CL in silver.

          If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

            Oh, nice to learn about that Giel. I had no idea.

            Ok so one more in silver. Pity but at least it's an original and would display nicely on a salty tunic

            Thanks for the replies guys

                  Hello

                  I also agree with Giel...an unmarked FCL design in slver grade.

                  I can see where one would get the impression this is a bronze ISA.
                  These examples had a reddish-black undercoating applied before the silver/white frosted finish coating.
                  As the frosted finish was delicate, these are often found in worn condition with only the undercoat remaining.

                  Here is one I have to compare.

                  Best Regards, fischer
