Old metallic Amiga badge

These used to turn up quite often on eBay a number of years ago (close to 10, maybe). Haven't seen one in a while.

I wonder what the story behind that is?

Did they make too many labels and want to re-use them sometime in the future, like the DX badges from the C64DX.  Apparently they had loads of DX badges left over from a run of CBM PCs, and they slapped them on a version of the 64, and hey presto, a new machine was born!!

The story I remember is that management made a last-minute decision to use the Checkmark instead of the Boing Ball.
