Hello,

What do you think about this badge.

Thank you

Hi baptistegg,

That's an unmarked Souval. It's unclear from the photos if the R.S. mark has been ground off or if it was produced that way, but the lack of maker mark is concerning for post-war production.

Interestingly, it has the same trimming features and finish that are seen on the controversial wide-pin version of the Souval Fleet badge. It's still unknown whether these were were wartime or post-war assembly.

Best regards,
---Norm

I agree, it is unmarked RS HSF, postwar if the mm was not ground off.
Is it personalized on the right side on the wreath?
Here is my marked variant for comparison.
Cheers,
Hubert

But no mm.

And it's not personalized, the traces are on both sides of the wreath
