Hi
Thanks for that. Yes, I'd worked out what it was -strangely enough I first heard of this group when I used to make model soldiers back in the early 70's!
Also well aware that these have been attacked by the fake industry but this was sold, I believe, to a very experienced collector and the accompanying material (medals, etc.) left no doubt that it was genuine.
I have somewhere a photo of the reverse which I can post too.
Anyway, long gone and I was only prompted to mention it as an aside.
