Default Any gems here?

Hi all,

I received these badges as a part of a larger lot that I recently won at auction. The description said that some of the badges were restrikes so I'm working on that assumption and I have already discounted the truly horrible and obvious but wondered whether any of these might be good.

All of them aready outside my area of interest, hence I have no idea about them. If any are good, I would look to move them on, on the forum.

Any opinions would be gratefully appreciated and indicative value if appropriate.

I'm happy to provide additional photos if required.

Kind Regards,

Pete.

Thank you Simon and David,

No problem at all as that's what I thought. Thank you for your replies. I got what I wanted from the lot so these were 'extras'.

Kind Regards,

Pete.
