Default Old Contemptibles badge

Hi All,

Does anyone know if the old contemptibles lapel badge has been faked?

Thanks,

Michael

Thanks Frank.

I'm guessing from the number of views and lack of replies that no one else has either.

Thanks a lot,

Michael

I've got a beautifully HAND-ENGRAVED one that has been lovingly done with (I suspect) a dental burr. It's old for sure and even has a gold pin.

Anyone want a pic?
