I make no comment on the badge that is the subject of this thread as it’s outside my interests.

However, I would say never underestimate the powers of poor eBay photography.

About 2 years ago now there was what turned out to be a genuine 1916 all GM Leinster Regiment listed on a £12.99 Buy It Now for a couple weeks until someone I know took a gamble.

Unfortunately I deleted the listing pictures to free up memory on my phone but suffice to say the scans were so bright and poor with lurid colour enough to put every eBay dealer and knowledgeable collector off.

Sometimes it’s worth a calculated risk especially when it can be returned for a refund.
