Default Army remount service cap badge

Hi

Please could I have some opinions on whether this badge looks genuine. It appears well made and with good detail but need more experienced feedback on this type of badge.

Many thanks

Default Thank you

Many thanks. I'm relatively happy with it as it has some of the sheen still present on the back and what I think are die sheer marks on the edge of the badge and slider. I'm glad that you like it and thanks for your reply.

I have the same type with the solid back (die cast).

Hi Phil

It's quite a neat looking badge and I was thinking that it was a die cast type. The horse looks die stuck and then applied.
