It's not a cap badge. The real ones were unpierced with 3 lugs.

But there was a SNCO's arm badge which this may well be.

Problem is that the pierced badges are being faked.

Not a genuine badge.

Compare the head on yours to a genuine one and you will immediately see the difference apart from the voiding. Denis

Thanks Denis,
Would you be able to post a photo of a genuine one for comparison please.
Thanks
Peter

Here are a couple of mine. The top two are good and the bottom two are fake. I hope that helps to see the differences.

Spot on, one of the easier fakes to recognise when seen together. Denis
