The badges you show are metal ones painted with enamel and are the ones HONDA replaced the original resin ones that came on the bike. ................lm

i did notice these were completely different than my other completely plastic ones i have on my other dreams .... i didnt realize Honda reproduced these to replace the original ones. they look decent and are larger than the current reproductions i bought for my black dream project ...

HONDA produced the metal ones in 2 sizes.
Large for the 250/305 and smaller for the CA92/95 and to fit other small CC bikes in the 60's. ..............lm
