Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a badge 101 as shown in FIG. 6 has been known. The conventional badge 101 is a so-called “can badge” in which members formed by substantially circular metal plates are opposed to each other, and the peripheral portion of one member is wrapped around the peripheral edge of the other member. It is formed by plastically deforming in the stagnation state. A picture such as a character appearing in a manga or a television animation is printed in advance on one member constituting the front surface (decorative portion) of the can badge, and the other member constituting the back surface of the can badge is attached to clothes or the like. Attachments such as pins used at that time can be attached. [0003] The can badge is sold, for example, by printing a picture or the like of a character appearing in the television animation at the time of broadcasting the television animation. Further, when a television animation in which a large number of characters appear is broadcasted, a can badge of a type corresponding to the number of the large characters may be manufactured. However, in such a case, a badge having a popular character in the decoration part can be sold well, but a badge printed with a character that does not increase in popularity will remain unsold as stock. The unsold badge may be discarded because it has no other use. [0004] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and even if the sales are affected by the popularity of the character or the like, such an effect is not obtained. It is an object of the present invention to provide a structure of a badge that can minimize the occurrence of stock products caused by the above and reduce the loss. [0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following configuration. That is, a metal badge provided with a mounting tool on the back surface and a decorative portion on the front surface, wherein the decorative portion is provided with a thin plate-like magnet plate. A concave portion having a shape substantially equal to the outer shape and thickness of the magnet plate. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view for explaining a badge according to the present invention, in which 1 is a badge according to the present invention, 3 is a badge body constituting the badge 1,
