There are 2 reasons for t it as i see it.
1. it´s possible that prior to the forbidding of hollow gold and silver badges they actually produced some before they started to produce the massive badges.
2. used as a primer in an attempt to try and get the black finish more adhesive to the badgeRegards

Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course). -
Have you tested the paint to see if it hasn't simply been sprayed over.
Perhaps a simple BWB someone decided to turn into silver postwar.
Try dab of acetone on an earswab. Wont hurt original period finishes.Comment
