Default 1st Gurkha Rifles badge date
All,
I have this die stamped version to this regiment which I assume is relatively modern. Can this be confirmed?
Thanks,

CB

Hi there - yes sadly a modern reproduction and the one most commonly seen on ebay ( there are 15 currently listed on ebay ranging from £4.99 to £39.99 - none of them genuine ) - The design actually dates to WW2. Tim
