What I would say is that over the last few years the number of poppy badges sold that are made of enamel and various other materials, seems to have increased, and they’re sometimes much harder to see when worn. I bought one in 2018 that’s made from oxblood leather and, I think, metal from a shell. It’s much smaller than the normal poppy and not bright red, so perhaps not immediately visible. But I wear it every year. I’ll put money in a collection box when I see one, but I don’t take another poppy as well.
