Hi Gents,

Looking for opinions on originality of these if possible, and yes, shame on me, the collars are facing the wrong way.............:o

Thanks

Hi Kevin there were a number of variations of these badges but yours are fine.

I stand to be corrected but think the collars should be reversed to face inwards. Will try and find out for you.

I have never seen a single example that I would regard as spurious.

Brian,

Thanks for your reply, and yes the collars should face inwards.
With 20 years service in the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment I really should not have posted them facing out like that.........:o

Regards and stay safe
