Gordon Craig Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Graf, Nice pictures of the badge. On my list of things to add to my collection. Too bad they aren't named although I've seen a few for sale with provenance. Thanks showing them and for your comments. Blessings, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graf Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hi Gordon, Yes it took me a while till i got the Set The prices of them doubled for the last 1-2 years i was lucky to get them earlier Yes, I have seen few named ones single or in a Grouping It could have been nice to have one named. Nevertheless, My Goal was to get the Set of three. My major interest in collecting is in other areas. I simply wanted to get Baronet Badge I was lucky to get one named (see my other topic) and The Set of the three models of the Knight badge I am still chasing a miniature of the first and/or second model Hi Marcon1 Thank you for the additional information. I hope any of the members, who has Named Badges will list them on the forum Here are more pictures of the miniature Regards Graf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
