PPCLI Marguerite
The attached photos are of a PPCLI Marguerite that is presently on eBay. I wonder whether it is genuine as the seller indicates. Any opinions appreciated.

Looks a lovely gilt sweetheart brooch.
Nothing wrong with that Dan |

Thanks for the reply. The double strike and the poor solder around the pin made me skeptical.

What makes you think, other that what you mention, it is in any possible way, whatsoever, spurious?

One thing to look for is the amount of detail in the flower petals. The reproductions tend to be smooth (or smoother) without the striations. Lack of detail in the striking is another point to check. The pebbling in the annulus is not as distinctive on copies.
While these characteristics are useful guides, the badge in question appears to be a good example.
