Radnor HG Phase II Cap badge - British & Commonwealth Military Badge Forum

I acquired this cap badge well before I discovered this forum, and have always wondered if it was a good one. It looks to be a pretty nice strike, but the maker's name on the slider is a concern because I don't know if that is correct. After I discovered the forum I always thought it was a bad one and obtained another nice one since from Geoff Newman. That's one that is in one of my HG display cases.

Would appreciate any comments on this one if good or bad please.

Thank you,

Terry

I do not like the maker's name I am afraid. It very likely to be a fake.

Terry,

If you look in my thread "Yeomanry Badges", near to this one, you will find a number of posts by Luke H which contains a very comprehensive list of known fake makers marks and sadly yours is included.

Regards

Thank you gentlemen, Not to worry as I already felt it was a dud. That's why I went to a reputable dealer and am quite happy with the one I received from Geoff.

Again, thank you!
