The QVC 4th Hussars is a good fake, I was nearly caught out by one a few years back. You’ll notice the lettering is ever so slightly rounded at the ends, seeding slightly coarse and the loops are modern footed variety.

Those points aside these are very convincing fakes with excellent reverse detail and well detailed crowns etc. they lack many of the tell tale signs of the obvious repros.

For Victorian cavalry I highly recommend Chipper’s album as a guide on what to look for.
