But reasonable price level for 1st class remains to be confirmed. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaguyahime Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Hello, gentlemen! Previously in this thread I asked about «orange colour» Labour Merit Badge. The reason to ask was this badge. For reverse photo, orange colour enamel badge is on the left. No flash used while taking photo. Now, when all the three badges are in front of my eyes, it is very similar (or even clear), that the difference between brown and orange colour of enamels is not a matter of shade or flash. And my question still is actual. If the «orange» badge is original, and the orange and brown badges are the same Labour Merit Badge (as it is written on the reverse of both), then why the colour differs? The only possible version to my mind, is that the badges were made in different periods (the orange one possibly is a later version), but I doubt about it. There is one more thing about orange badge. It seems to be the remains of white colour on the central part of rays, but not for the longest ones. Speaking of the box for orange badge, it is absolutely different. But it looks like original. The place for the star inside the box was made just for it. What do you, gentlemen, think about the orange badge? Please, share your opinion!
