Default How scarce (or common) are these Anodised badges ?

Amongst the large collection of assorted military badges that I recently bought, were a few anodised cap badges that I can't remember ever having owned before. Just wondering how scarce they are (or how common). the badges in question are:-

Leeds Rifles (with Tank below bottom arm of the cross)

6th Battalion the Hampshire Regiment

Rifle Brigade with Guelphic Crown.

Will add images later.

thanks in advance

Hi Paul,

Certainly not rare.

On a scale of Rare, Scarce or Common:

Leeds Rifles (with Tank below bottom arm of the cross) and the 6th Battalion the Hampshire Regiment - Scarce

Rifle Brigade with Guelphic Crown - Common

All three are reasonably easy to obtain on eBay and no one seems to scramble for them.

re: Leeds Rifles (with Tank below bottom arm of the cross) - I've not found any official authorisation for this badge yet and keep it in a 'possibles' appendix.

Regards

Chris
