    Karl,

    I am unable to answer your question - however you should know that the plate worn by Stanley Baker in film Zulu was not the correct one - it was a 'Volunteer' plate.

    Karl,
    Check out Thin Red Line. It's the ultimate source of information about such matters. Play your cards right, though, and you can buy the real deal for less than a repro!
