Default 1St VB manchester
Hi...I asked a quesion earlier toady about the Royal Naval Divison Drake Badge
I meant to ask about this badge also...Which after i purchased it I believe it is alos a fake...The 1St button is over the motto....

I am a new collector of British Cap badges And I guess I need to be smarter in my purchases and not always believe the seller...In both cases the seller said the badges where 100% orginal....

It scares sellers like my sell from buying..I live in Canada and have been buy from UK sellers...

Thanks For all the advise I do appreciate the help

The rear definition is too poor, the slider is wrong, the VB plaque is wrong. A common copy I am afraid.

It looks the same as the one I posted a while back. It also had the plaque in the wrong place.
