Hi all re-opening the thread as well.

What do you think of those guys ?
For me they are probably both post war. The silver one is an NCO, and the other one seems like a plastic economy one. Pretty rare to see one.

Are the WW2 UK made ones had only those types of lugs ? (last photo)
I noted two types. The green back photo has the two lugs types on one badge, probably a repair.
I agree with Luc, for me the golden round wire lugs are definitely not UK made ones. Could they be belgium made pre-war ? I think they probably post war as it's the most common lugs type and they were 50000 belgium volonteers end of 44-45, most probably wearing this type.

Cheers
