Default South Wales Borderers Badges

Gentlemen
I have had these two a while and wondered if all is good and if approximate age is known ?
Kind regards Chay

Any time between 1903 and the early 1960s. There are no clues to when it was made.

On balance of probabilities with lack of braze holes it’s likely after the Great War, but, as Alan says the design didn’t change so impossible to be precise.

Alan and Luke
Thank you I’m glad they at least genuine so I didn’t do too bad picking them in my early days of buying cap badges
Kind regards Chay
