So many copies abound have been asked if this is real or a copy I think copy but want to check first so as not to make a mistake! Many thanks Billy

Hi Billy,

Yes, a common copy I'm afraid.

Cheerio,

Roy

Thought as much Roy (only because of the Forum) but someone else's badge and came with Medals acquired by him will ask the name of him coukd be he served and a copy was good enough? Thanks for confirmation, billy

Sorry for hijacking this threat.

What about this one?

This is also a common fake/reproduction.

I have had original example in the past but at this time can't locate any image as I'm in the middle of changing computers.

Cheerio,

Roy

Aren't these always cast? That would show a rough finish around the badge, see attachment.

The badges from post #1 and #4 are cut from sheetmetal.
