Royal Engineers EVII Volunteers wm badge
Hello gentlemen,
despite my not always good experiences with badges made of white metal and my problems with lugs, I would like to show you my new addition. K & K 880, Royal Engineers EVII in white metal. The front has been polished, the back is rather dull gray and shows residues of a polishing paste. Both sides show a good die struck quality and the lugs look for me reliable (ok, they are not very dark ..... ) I've searched eBay as well as the major dealers' sites and found only one other badge showing this slightly asymmetrical outline of the laurel leaves, sold a few years ago. Well I hope you like it and I can end my white metal/lugs paranoia.... Thanks for all comments and answers, kind regards Markus |

Not a good one I’m afraid.
Also not what I would deem well struck on the reverse. |

Thank you Luke for your honest opinion!
I bought it along with these three other badges and it was the only one I had any doubts about. And when I compare it to my RE EVII gm badge (and the RTR on the pic above it) the embossing on the back really isn't that good. I think I can return it..... Thanks for the help, i think i have again learned a little bit, kind regards Markus |
