Andy, it's hollow backed with a fair amount of reverse detail but it's 2 or 3 mm thick and lacks some of the voiding of the gilt badge, I think it's cast although some of the rough finish to the rear may be down to the way the fittings have been applied.

I'm inclined to apologise for hijacking the thread but I hope that it's viewed that information about the one is of interest and relevant to the other.
Its nice Leigh, nice detailing especially on the shield.
