Default Welsh Horse Cap Badge - Opinions Please

Fellow collectors,

I'd value your opinion on this Welsh Horse cap badge (four with and one without flash)

VMT, PY.

Not very keen on that, in particular, it's slider.

I'm not either Frank. Thanks, PY.

Anyone else with an opinion they'd like to share?

I am a little surprised no one else has offered an opinion, I do not like it, certainly not an example that I would buy.

Frank,
I think the reason that not many people have offered an opinion is that this badge has been very widely copied and it is hard to tell from photos whether some of them are copies or fakes.
I have a number of examples I'm happy with and some of them are in my album;-

I'll see if I can find time to put the more recent acquisitions in there.
Hwyl,
Kevin

Hello Kevin,
I think I would certainly be very happy with the two examples you have in your album, but, not with the subject of this thread.
Regards Frank
