the bottom pic (old script) is the 60s/70s script (altho there are a couple of variations but all look very similar)

the script on the 1st pic (new script) is from the 1990's......

you need the bottom variety.... :D

That first badge is a dodgy copy, what gives it away is that the small C is not complete, the "tails" of the C should be within the body of the B as in the 2nd badge.
