A badge of this design was worn by the 4th (Perthshire) V.B. Black Watch and also Glenalmond OTC.

Thanks Luke, its not mine, but any idea on its authenticity?

Yes, it is not authentic to either in my belief I’m afraid.

The Coat of Arms of the City of Perth. Worn as such by the former Perth City Police.

Thank you chaps , much appreciated

The 4th VB Black Watch wore this badge in white metal and I believe the same metal was used for Glenalmond College.

I agree with with Luke, the badge you show is a dud, more so if it is a non white metal example.

Regards.

Boom - thank you Mike/chaps

In my opinion still from a fake die unfortunately. Immediate tells for me are the beak shape and the seeding as seen on the common fake which is found in both w/m and brass. Example attached.

For completeness and comparison purposes here is the fake against a Glenalmond w/m badge.
