Nice example. The cloth backing makes it from the 1930's onwards.

Marinus your album seems to be set as a private album which none of us except Alan can look at, if your image is linked from there it may explain why we can't see it here either?

Well, I certainly think it is an original badge, with some age to it, from the photographs I would be happy with it.
What are your concerns, I assume you have an issue, or you would not have started this thread? Quote:

Thought it was a good badge although a little shiny. I'm happy with it and like to share it with the forum. It's also nice to see the opinions from the more experienced forum members. Regards, Marinus Last edited by marinus; 21-09-19 at 05:36 PM. |

If it is 'frosted' silver and gilt (which gives a 'shiny' appearance), then it dates from about 1947. I can't find the reference but it is somwhere a few years after 1945.

South Staffordshire Regiment Officer's badge "frosted"?

Thanks for your comments. Would love to know when this badge was made. It doesn't look like "frosted" silver and gilt to me or does it? Regards, Marinus |
