Hi Chris,
Sorry mate but ' dog ' and ' bone ' come to mind here !
I've just received this badge, described by the seller as ' silver, gilt and enamel ', well it does have enamel ? I'm not sure about the gilt and I'm pretty sure it isn't silver.
The badge is quite heavy, the same weight as my A/A London Scottish and only half the size...........................soooo, if it isn't Aluminium, do you know how the finish is achieved ?? this is a typical example of what I would call anodised, am I that far off from reality ??
After I receive a firm answer, I will of course, be contacting the seller, to ask him why he described it as silver when it is, in fact, only a silver effect !!
As always, your time is appreciated and you have my thanks in advance.
Dave.
PS, This badge, apparently, came through Marlowe's auctions so it must be silver, gilt and enamel !!
