They look fine to me, would guess that they are 1950s - 1960s vintage

Friends,

The top one is fine. Regular British Army pattern. Most definitely post war as sealed in 1954. This one appears to be worn.

The bottom title I am not sure about. Shape and lettering is a bit irregular. But then, there are lots of variations in SAS titles.

Cheers,

Johan

Whatever age the bottom one is, it is not a copy. There are plenty of other British made badges with identical construction.

Hi Jon,

I would be happy to be proven wrong on the bottom title. Could you please post a picture of the version you have?

There is always one more variation in SAS insignia!

Cheers,

Johan
