Hi
I've seen quite a few of this pattern 'chad' over the years both wm & gm.
I'd suggest that they are spurious, alledgedly they are manufactured by Martin Marsh.

Smile 17th Lancers "Chad"

G'day Griff

I obtained 2 of these many years ago both in white metal and gilding metal, I was told many years ago that they were no good but dont have any more details, but as you probably know the "Chad" has short bones and about 38 mm wide where as these are 47 mm wide and the proportions are all wrong.

Regards

Phil.
