I require the help of the forum please, is this badge an original or fake?

Thank you for looking, Keith

The rounded lettering on the front and the slider for me are wrong for me, interesting to see the raised mm on the back, but then what do I know.

Magpie, as a corvid you are an intelligent bird. Not having boned up on the badge the maker mark would make me wonder if it was good- but I also associate that font with dodgy badges. Regards, Paul.

If you search on the forum you will see examples of this officers' badge with lugs. The sans-serif numeral 4 is distinctive.

The slider and the blotchy patina makes me suspicious about it.
