Wanted - 1978 standard tank badges

Cafetools, the 79F badges were glossy gold like chrome and are the holy grail find. To find examples not peeling their gold is very hard. Always looking for em. I could barely let this set go with the 79F I sold.

He makes his from casting pewter. Maybe he could be convinced trying some of these. I have several other sets he made and they are nice.

RESTO's cast pewter emblems are absolutely beautiful IMO - very nice indeed!
