I will not buy from the suggested link but I do have to ask why his descriptions are so tardy, it doesn't look like it's blackened brass to me !!
All the best,
Dave.
PS, I bought this one after asking the seller for a photo of the back, I thought it looked OK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!oops.
Hi Dave,

I'm good ta how's yourself?

Afraid its the same restrike die again mate, it looks to be honest pretty shoddy on the back, no age to it, poor reverse detail, is lugged (the latter is not a condemning feature but I feel far more comfortable with London badges from this period being slidered) and damningly its double struck on the reverse. Sorry

Cheers,

Luke
