The Raleigh Cycle Co. Heron Crest Headbadge (brass variant as shown) appeared on Raleigh Nottingham models from 1972 until 1981/2 for models imported to the States. It replaced the Raleigh Heron and Torch Crest headbadge of the 1960s - 1970.
The image shown is the headbadge from an 1973 Raleigh Super Course.
