I can't remember who told me, but I believe that the way to tell the difference between the Berkhamstead OTC badge and the Volunteers badge (other than loops vs slider) is to study the ground the stag stands on. Of course, I am well aware that badges where re used, but the difference is there albeit very subtle. Just thought I would bring it up. Nice badge by the way Wilf :)

Well, bit of a saga with this one but we got there in the end!! The badge was lost in the post but was finally delivered today (my birthday!) a huge apology and a £10 refund followed from the seller, first class service all round. After a bit of a clean I'm delighted with it, lovely gilding all over, proper jewellers job by the look of it with a nice brooch attached. I'll keep it as it is and wear it to work at the School for Remembrance in November, pics attached,
A happy Wilf.

Wilf,

A lovely badge. Out of curiosity, what did you clean it with?

Presuming there's an RVC and a 2nd VB Beds amongst them, which is which please Steve? Is one of them the one I gave you from the NAM stuff?

I cleaned the badge with a trimmed toothbrush dipped in household ammonia, then gave it a good wash with soapy water, worked a treat.
keith, they are all Yeomanry badges apart from the top right which is the RVC cap badge as I'm led to believe plus cap & collars for the 2nd VB, sure I have a photo somewhere!!
