I can’t find it? The only thing they’ve got listed at £150 is the fake silver 27th Lancers.

It’s there Luke £120. One of those strange constructions where the wm scroll has a half crescent and then the ball of the grenade overlaid on top. Long slider.

Ah got it. Fake. Here’s one same construction with a Gaunt B’ham stamp.

Others that are not ‘A genuine item as always’ (if you remember, you’ll know) are…

The Cyprus Regt, silver 27L, blank scroll HLI, 5DG, Lanark IY, 1st Argyllshire RV and Artists Rifles.

That style of construction is genuine to my knowledge? And the slider and die is different. I don't understand the price though.

I have had one of these and it was 100% fake. The only original I have is lugged and is the standard construction.

Another for the bin I had been under the impression that these blank scrolls were not all that rare, given the number of battalions that they were intended for.
