Last question about Leicestershire badges!
I have seen this voided loop tail...I have read that voided or non-voided doesn't mean nothing about the era ...just about the makers...but I would like to know if you think this could be a legit one...Now that I have a Victorian badge and a non voided WWII badge in my collection it would be great to have this voided variant..it has no brazing holes, but it has no owl eyes too! I don't know what to think...Thank you!

As mentioned, it is likely a bad badge and not a good acquisition.
The lugged badge you showed is very good and possibly Victorian.
