Hi Jan Arne,

Nice badges, especially that rare BECO!

Only the "Mayer" isn't actually a Mayer. That's the type attributed to Juncker and someone's done something odd to the pin.

It nicely matches the examples in this thread.

Best regards,

Hello there,

What other badges did BECO produce? They look to be of a decent quality.

Examples of these awards can be seen in the KM database at GCA.
