3rd Dragoon Guards
I have acquired a cap badge of the 3rd Dragoon Guards, but it is not totally voided out around the scrolls. I have never seen one like it before nor can I find a picture on the internet like it. The wear on the front is consistent with wear from polishing and it appears well aged.
Any opinions on this badge please? Cheers Tom |

Looks like a ‘dumpy’ feathered fake to me. That wear is not from polishing but rather something much more abrasive and flat like an emery board - this is a trick fakers often use. Polishing produces a much more rounded effect. Also if it was polished no doubt the whole badge would be polished rather than just the high points, the 3rd DG scroll hasn’t been touched.
