Repair or not?
Good afternoon all,
I'm new to the forum but have been collecting British Army headdress badges for many years. Of late, I have been troubled by the possibility that not all of my badges might be all I thought they were! This was brought on by the breaking of the slider on my 5th VB Manchester badge which was attached with very old solder which has now decayed. I have had it for at least 40 years (I know that doesn't make it kosher!) but before I try to have it mended, I would appreciate some thoughts on it's authenticity. The slider says 'Gaunts' but I know from reading your comments that may not be genuine so 'Help'!
