Re: Badge "Veteran Of Guards Mortar Units".

These really are solid pieces. More in line with the production values of an Order than a Commemorative Badge - you won't find these floating on a breeze.

Re: Badge "Veteran Of Guards Mortar Units".

Indeed, they appear to be of brass construction, not plated aluminum. A veteran of a hard life, the suspension ring has been replaced with wire and the reverse pin has broken off on this example.

!) Note that the badges were also produced at different times, for different Mark MMD.
