Smile WM Lincs badge

Hi James,

Yes yours is a very nice WM die struck badge and I have no doubt that it is inded the genuine article. Was it a militia badge?

I bought mine at an Arms fair here from a dealer who sold bayonets and badges are not his thing. It was a fair price and I thought it worth a punt. I should have worked out that it was die cast and only some of the theatre badges have I known to be die cast and in my hands these have all been very rough. I have just purchased a Lincs one actually and it is on its way to me from the UK. My die struck one will go in the collection and I can always wonder when and if it was worn etc.

I will always look out for a WM die struck badge like yours, cheers Dean.
