I used to collect Glengarry badges ( sold most of them through Bosley's) - I would have been happy to have this one in my collection. I like the lugs which is one of the best "tells" with Glengarrys. Tim

I do not collect glengarry badges and am no authority on the subject but if I was seeking an original 75th I would buy one like yours.
As you point out the repros have the extra joins between and around the numerals. Whereas the die your badge is from does not and would appear not to have been copied as it is seldom seen. Your badge also matches one sold at Bosley’s, lot no. 584 in their 29th Aug 2018 sale. Their badge is described as having N-S brass loops, again like yours. So a well done is in order I believe. |
