I’ve got this one in my collection. As you can see the strengtheners are really haphazard on this one. I’ve also added the “reversing tank” with strengthening bars.

If you closely the collar is facing the wrong way. It’s a shame we can’t see the other one. I was told by someone that they wore their collars facing outwards in peace time?? But there again I’ve got...

My gut feeling is it is a fake, but I might be wrong. It might be an officers self purchase.

Second one is a good one. The first one I’m not 100% sure on, it’s a bit tricky when you can’t handle it. Some people say if the slider is attached to the crown it’s a fake, but I beg to differ.

South Wales Borderers badge or sweetheart?

I bought this badge the other day. I’m not too sure if it was intended to be a sweetheart, or worn as a cap badge? It is properly enamelled and not painted.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Alan,

I thought as much, as the stamping on the reverse of the badge didn’t look right to me.

Thanks,

This one isn't a repair as there is no damage to the badge and the brazing looks original compared to the slider.

Is that a repair, or are those rods purposely made?

I knew the reason for the change, but didn't know if the "Fear Naught" badge was worn with the service cap or not. So you are saying the brass "fear naught" was worn with the service...

Royal Tank Corps badge

Can anyone give me some info on this badge? I'm not sure if it's genuine as it's the wrong colour, but it might be an early one.
