The second variety has a badge number with a prefix initial and a round inscription.
Third variety has a badge number with a prefix initial and has a stacked inscription.
The third version has prefix initials A B C D
There are also some size and style variations in the numbers and lettering.
Most numbers are usually four digits but three digit numbers can occasionally be found.
