Thanks!!! I'd go Timings then with one of the sliders I call a 'shark nose' type - our measurments are about the same and I always rounded up or down to the nearest 0.1mm or so. Timings also made quite thin badges with a lot of detail cut into the reverse or punch die similar to yours. If anyone has a spare Hughes badge with these twin rivets for sale then please let me know as I need one to photograph for a section on sliders that I have written. Regards Chris |

Hi Chris
Frustratingly found an orphaned gold a/a slider adrift in a box of a/a badges, many with broken/missing sliders. However, through elimination am confident it belongs to the RASC (QC). Width 5.5mm |

Could be but one could never be 100% that the slider came from the badge unless it matched exactly re: colour tone and join. Could the slider have come from any of the other badges? Regards, Chris |
