Double Scroll Nelly (19th Hussars)
Is this a good one or a bad one!?
 Its has been cleaned on receipt..... it had varnish on it.... the loops were glazed with it. Its been heated to burn off the varnish and then been deep cleaned and polished with silvo wadding and then washed..... its got a good lustre to it. Nice yellow braise at the base of the loops. The detail is very crisp.... Loops spaced at 27mm Loop height = 8mm Badge approx H = 40mm x W = 50mm (or 1 1/2 inches x 2 inches)

.......and all that for a fake!! Sorry Griff, I've had half a dozen hopefuls, even last week I got another but I'm still unconvinced and yours is the same as mine.

£450... you're having a "Bubble Bath",  I think you may have to move the decimal point to the left at least twice!Good luck if it sells, if you are going to use the Forum Albums as a shop window, then please use it for confirmed genuine items and not confirmed copies!

With the prices these can realise, it is probably worth who-ever is making them to use ' yellow gold ' filler wire, in small doses, not too expensive ?? just a thought. Dave.
