LIVERPOOL PALS - HEX LUGS
 

Any thoughts?

Whatever, it is Pattern 8520/1915



Hex lugs are found on many Scottish G badges etc - might they have been used under presure of production ???

It’s genuine.

Same badge was discussed in this thread https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...ad.php?t=74641

repaired?

I've seen a few (photgraphs) to convince me that they are genuine.


That makes ANOTHER Lpl Pals badge to get !

Is there a photo of the front of the badge in the opening post ?

No they were made like that. The demi lion Tyneside Scottish is also found with hex’s.
