Default Highland Light Infantry

All 3 have slightly different sized lugs all copper.

No 2 is a flatter badge, 1 lug is bent over and solid,can't adjust?

Other 2 badges slightly bevelled.

No 3 lugs seem very narrow-no way a pin would go through them??


Thoughts please

Thanks

Default HLI BADGES

No`s 1 and 2 look fine to me.No 3 seems to be lacking in detail front and back and the lugs appear to have feet and are poorly soldered. The squeezed lugs are often found where the badge has been mounted on a wooden board or shield in the past, it allows the lugs to fit in drilled holes.
