    I was given this from a friends mothers estate years ago. I have kept it in a drawer ever since but I am curious about it. Were there originals and replicas made? This one came to me back in the 1970s.

      That’s a picture of the one off chiefs badge. The one I have is one of the agents badges. There were only 12. There are only five missing now.

      The link was to compare the quality, construction, markings and patina to your piece. Along with provenance those things are needed to authenticate a piece.
