LONDON BRIGADE -5TH RFA
Hi all, I wanted to run this by you all as I see these a lot in the UK Ebay; but as you would guess all re-strikes. I did a search on the forum but no one had or has posted anything like this one. The three lugs are positive I would think, as most I see have the two on the scroll alone.
Any comments are welcome. Regards Simon. |

HI Andy, could you fill me on what makes it a dud, if there is any specific one's.
Thanks Simon. |

Hi Simon,
I rather like my example of the badge, its a spinning wheel type. They are on Gaylor plate 51 'additional volunteers and territorials' They were renamed from the 3rd Middlesex RGA Vols in 1908. The badges are KK 822. I do agree that your picture shows a dud, it has the characteristic dent in the end of the scroll. Cheers Phil

That's OK chap's. I didn't get it but was curious as it had three lugs as I mentioned in the post. It's not on my radar anyway, as if real it would only spark off another off shoot to the collection that would distract me.
Thanks again. |

I saw your update as I was about to reply but thought I would post anyway for reference. And now my battery is about to die! Phil

To clarify the 3 lug configuration is a mark of a fake badge.

Guess there's a few fakes going around because this is on a slider, but thought I'd post it for your reference Chrissy |
