I don't shout COPY very much but in this case - I will !
This is a common fake - as in a modern construction.
It purports to be Pattern 4362A/1896 - authorised on 7th December 1896 an was made obsolete on 21st December 1926.
The horse has "hairy" flanks - clearly rubbish. The ground / grass is usually defined the 21 (so far) dies - the way the grass "grows" not as a mish mash as here. The last detail is the bowed backwards hind legs. NO die has ever had this feature! Yes, the slider looks too shiny.
So, for the KLR, I apologise that I have no knowledge of the Sherwood Forester badge.
