another... given the context and quality of the group overall, I’m convinced it’s a legitimate field repair.

Hi Luke,

A vertical line is evident toward either end of the scroll. I take that to be where blades were attached at one point.

A great shame, but, still a fine badge and certainly worth having.

All beautiful early badges, not as black as most later OSD tend to be. The E. Riding Yeo. does not bother me in the least. A finely detailed badge.
