Default RA Volunteers cap badge
Hi Guys
opinions welcome on this RA Vols cap badge looks a good die struck
badge with sharp detail front and back with a good curve to badge
maybe it should have only 2 lugs in the middle of the badge ?
i understand these badges have been faked
good or bad let me know
regards julian

Hi Julian,

These badges have featured on the forum before. Bad news I'm afraid. Viewed from the front the right hand scroll end has a"nibble". This is considered the sign of a fake.

Regards

Ry
