Default Welsh regiment genuine?

Hi

I've posted this on another forum but thought that I'd post it here in case it gets some attention. Does this one look original? There is a feint trace of a slider on the reverse. Looks like someone has tried to repair the slider and dripped solder onto it at sometime? Thank you for any help

Many thanks Jerry. It was just too cheap to leave at £2.50. I have others which are genuine but couldn't resist a cheap piece of history.

Thanks Jerry. I don't buy badges anymore unless they are cheap. I bought loads once and then found out that about 80% were fake. I replaced a load by good ones from a seller on here who knows his stuff.
