Hello Seppi,
These are very rare badges & do not often appear on the market for sale. At this time I do not know of any that are available....
Here is a picture of my one.

Nice looking piece - So Don,, is yours Blue to Green colored enamel ? What is the size? Thank you Gaspare. It's a large piece measuring 47mm by 46mm at the widest points. As to the colour, it's a bottle green, the same as the one shown in the link posted by Seppi. These are quite vaulted/cureved, so do not sit flat on the scanner glass which accounts for the colour effect at the top of the green enamel wreath from the bright white light of the scanner. This is often seen with enamel badges & is a downside to using a scanner rather than a camera....

Thanks Joe. And for completeness, the genuine badge that the fake is based on....
