In view of reading various posts concerning whether Tiptaft badges were worn exclusively or not by Light Horse, may I ask if a unit would really have its complement wearing badges with differing finishes? (blackened brass. blackened copper, black bronze, bronze, etc)
My only Tiptaft badge (slidered) is blackened copper; my LHB title is copper face with black back GTB |

I don't think there is anyone on this forum who believes tiptaft badges were exclusively worn by LHR. And if there is then every experienced Australian collector would set them right Bc |

I just came across this Tiptaft rising sun that's for sale online but the writing on the slider & the W /I\ D don't seem right. Can anyone confirm if this is a fake?

I have a lot of Australia titles, but would like a Tiptaft if anyone has a spare.

nah its a dud and the seller should/does know better. the badge looks average, the slider is wrong and they were never issued with the WD & arrow bc |

In fact that 'sprayed-on' type of finish is a hallmark of our old mate the Bulgarian faker isn't it.
