Cool 17th21st Lancers

Arty, the second badge looks to me as though it has been in the ground which has discoloured the white metal, a good clean I'm sure will reveal white metal as the other badge.

Both are good..... first is the Smith & Wright type and the second is a dirty motto..... just needs clean.
