A fellow member has asked which mark should be on the 50 yr badge. Mine has a 5...

If you have a 50 please post it.

A very nice badge Don.

I have been looking through my files as I thought I had some images saved but it was a 1st type and unnumbered. Still seems as though I should have some images saved somewhere.

Will keep my eyes open.

No -actually I think this is the second or third time I have ever seen one and certainly not in that great condition.

Hi there

I was the member who asked the question. I finally got one of these now so that completes the 25, 40 and 50 year ones for the NSRKB

Mine is a number 6. Can I ask is there anyway to tell who the makers were from the numbers?

[Pagan]

Thought I would post all three NSRKB's along with a 40 Year Certificate.

Enjoy

Thanks for sharing it with us Mel, nice to see another.

As to the numbers, there is speculation amongst collectors as to what exactly they are for. Some feel that they are manufacturer numbers, as in something like an LDO number. Others feel that they are simply a die or planchette number so that if there was a fault on the finished product then they would lknow which die was damaged.

Cheers

Very interesting to see the 6 numbered badge. Thanks for showing it.

Someday I hope to be able to share an example here.

Thanks for the info Don, I am a bit of a newbie when it comes to enamel badges. Lack of reference material makes it even harder
