Im looking for the same thing,but be prepared to pay well over 100 for it,but watch for the fakes,apparently they,re out there...Im not paying that price,not ever.I can live with a Gretsch hole:)
I'd advise both of you to buy a beat up Gretsch tom for cheap. Then take the badge off and put it on your bass drum. :)

Two problems with that idea......one was stated in the post above....the other is that finding a Gretsch round badge anything for cheap is near impossible these days. Even the drums that are seriously beat go for stooopid money.
So...there were 3 round badge sizes then? Tom, bass, and snare?
I just picked up a round badge kit and I wanted to get a badge for my bass drum as well. I've seen the eBay prices ($150...sheesh!). So, none of them are interchangeable?
One badge, three different sizes of holes punched through them. The bass drum badges are often missing, as the friction-fit grommet did not always hold over time. Tom badges seem to be next likely to be missing.
You can always pick up a badge from a snare (they are fairly plentiful) and enlarge the hole for use on a bass drum.
Please don't get one from a tom that was tacked on and has a small hole. Those are hard to find and you cannot make the hole smaller once you have enlarged it.
I have a few snare badges available if you are interested.
Ive got a 1951 3 ply conga with a round badge. Make me an offer
