I have just ordered a reproduction polished bronze Citroen Badge from AUTHENTICLIGHTINGANDHARDWARE
https://www.authenticlightingandhardware.com/citroen-cars-parts-for-sale.html
Price was a very reasonable $A36.50 + $10 shipping. Apparently it was cast from an original. The bronze material should be more resilient than the original zinc. I will have to get it chrome-plated myself. The mounting posts are threaded with retaining nuts, rather than the posts with clips as original. I look forward to receiving it.
I was also alerted by a Citroen Car Club UK member to a ebay Italy listing for an original badge of the correct type and have purchased that as well... It looks okay in the photos but it is difficult to assess. We will see whether it is good enough to go on the car when it arrives.
Thank you everybody for contributions and advice.
