It's also got earlier type wings where the lowest feather is less than half the length of the top feather.
Nice blue and red enamels.

Are they just different variations or one of them was painted by the owner to make it looks more flashy?

They are both pinback and have a mirroring reverse with a small mintmark (different mintmark though)

Thanks to enlight me.

The two brothers were WW I aviators. One of the photos is a unit photo around what I think is a Sopwith Camel.

I love the very early aviation things and this group is a keeper.

This family was Georgian royalty. Dukes. This trip I have acquired the brother's gold cross Order of St. George. I'll share it in a separate thread once I get back home. It makes quite an interesting family group.
