Dodgy Cap Badges?
Hi
Can you please take a look at these cap badges and comment, I think they are probably all fake but just want another opinion. I'm guessing the Warwickshire RHA is a common fake. Next is 2nd Royal Surrey Militia...I think Norfolk's is just an awful looking thing Worcesters star looks like a silvered officers pattern but is spoiled by the shiny brass bit and the slider. Regards Sean |

You are correct on the Warwickshire RHA.

Worcestershire Regiment looks like a Birmingham Mint product.

Thanks Tim, Initially thought that too, actually doesn't look as good as the Birmingham Mint one, looks like it might be an unfinished one,

Norfolk comes from the Lambourne die. Nothing wrong with it

Really Nozzer, I'm amazed, is it meant to be a sweetheart badge then? Looks like it's been 'jazzed' up a bit.

To be honest picked it up many many years ago as a Guards item but then spotted it in Kipling and King hence me calling it Surrey Militia
