W.W.1 Derbyshire Rgt. and a O.T.C. Cambridgeshire Rgt
Can I get your opinions on these please.
Derbyshire Rgt. Don’t likes :- The Crown is offset (arch of crown less to left side). The “SH(damaged or faulty Jig?)ERWOOD” ———— “FORESTERS” the “R,s appear raised”? Rear colouring, artificial aging? or is it varnish? Sharpness to edges Likes :- Crimp mark on Slider. “DERBYSHIRE” front font. Would like to be original but have not seen one to compare against, I expect it to be wrong? The Cambridgeshire Officer’s O.T.C. sharpness to rear gives me concern but can anyone see if there is a definite way to say good or bad? Many thanks Billy |

The KC Derbyshires are complete fantasy items. Several threads on here about them over the years. The title was changed at same time as the crown.

I like this badge, IMO a good one, others may differ.
As for the Derbyshire KC, as Luke has said it has been the subject of numerous threads. Rob |

Just from the the photographs, I think the Sherwood Forester's you show is of recent manufacture, however, I have encountered this badge actually made from two perfectly original badges, both being therefore ruined, as no such badge was worn by the regiment.
