Default RAF medical branch

Picked up a couple of nice badges this morning, an RAOC gilded cap badge and a nice raf medical branch collar also in gilt both maker marked by Guant I only remember seeing few of these badges for O/R's and all the usual fakes as cap badges so would anyone know how scarce this would be or not.

Pretty scarse and a nice find. A RAF medical officer collar badge in gilt. I also found one of these identical to yours recently. So I now have both officers and O/R collar.

Nice find, Looks good to me.
You're certainly right about the amount of fake 'cap badges' around.
