The Beds is a lovely example.

APC looks fine as well and the 20th Hussars needs a second opinion.

Many thanks Alan I was happy with the APC when I saw it and the Beds looked nice so that's a nice confirmation.

Many thanks. The 20th may be an extruded slider, I'm not sure. There seems to be vertical lines running down one surface and the end looks hand shaped. The edges though are not rounded.

Default The slider on the 20th hussars
More pics of the slider on the hussars badge. Is this an extruded slider?

Hello Martin,
I maybe wrong but I'm thinking the 20th Hussars badge shows the sign of the fake badges in that the bridge between the H and the right hand X is thinner than the opposite one from H to X ? Have I got that right or is it my eyes

Yes Gerard. You are correct it does appear thinner. Is this definately a fake?

Cheers

Martyn
