Hi Mike,
I'd hope you as well as I are happy with the stamping and detail of the badge, mine has been seen by a couple of KLR collectors who raised no concerns.
Paul

Hi Paul. Yes, I love the quality of the badge - no 'wring' to it. Good stamp front and back. One thing I noticed (like you do when you examine a badge closely for the first time) - the 1st set of quotation marks round 'KING'S' is upside down, which I have seen mentioned on here as a red flag on standard pre 1926 King's badges, but no idea if it's a problem on these. I've been looking at other King's Liverpool badges for comparison - here's one for sale now on ebay which seems identical to ours - but no GAUNT stamp and screw posts not lugs - which might be expected on sporran badges http://www.ebay.ie/itm/LIVERPOOL-SCO...cAAOSw44BYf-WT. Best regards, Mike

Mike,
You will probably be shaven painted and banished for posting a link to this eBay seller, I am not sure if it is bad photography but if I was interested in the badge in the link I would have to see it in the flesh. Hopefully more conclusive comments on the other 3 badges will be forthcoming
Paul
