The MB Market Insights
In the world of vintage Mercedes, many parts are becoming NLA and nearly impossible to track down on the used market. This includes both a mix of mechanical and aesthetic pieces. For any W116 6.9 enthusiast, this set of original "450SEL 6.9" badges are a must have. While an authentic 450SEL badge can be tracked down, finding a genuine 6.9 badge has become quite the task today. We've seen some replicas pop up from time to time, however, the plastic doesn't hold up nor is the sizing 100% accurate. Whether you're restoring the perfect W116 or need to stockpile parts which are unobtanium, this OEM 6.9 badge is only getting more rare by the day.

Yes you are right, USA 6.9 only had the 6.9 badge.
Some Canadians 6.9 had both badges and i saw some with only 6.9 badge. I do not know the specifics behind it, maybe someone else who is knowledgeable about Canadian 6.9s can chime in.
