I think it has some age to it? Both the detail (ears) and the braze colour are more common on older badges? I think it could be a wartime badge, that's WW1 or 2 and not Gulf! Andy |

Alan,
I agree, but even only having seen these images, I still think it has some age! Andy |

Quite possibly but if I was after a true Edwardian badge then I would replace it at the earliest opportunity. Alan |

17th L
Thank you for your replies.
That was the idea when i bought it Alan a lugged 17th but inexperiance chose not to look at the lugs just the front and the back of the OR GLORY to see how clear it was,also i read somewhere that the earlier joint on the top bones was flatter as seen in this badge ? so you think this could be from anytime between 1914 - 1950 . Iain P.s. A thought has just occured to me is it possible the lugs might have been replaced at sometime as i cant imagine that the factory would fix lugs like this to a badge i mean twisted round to face each other where originally they would have faced vertically and needed two pins Last edited by iain; 01-11-12 at 08:41 PM. |
