Default "Lovely Suffolk Badge"
Hi All,

This is described as a lovely Suffolk badge, I guess there's no chance that it's a genuine piece ?

As soon as I saw your thread starting “ lovely “ I knew it was going to be a fake. This seller does tend to sell lots of fake items. Think he has been discussed on the forum before. He is certainly on my dodgy sellers list.

Problem is it's just "lovely", it needs to be "lovely, old school......"

Yes, Luke, I have taken in your advice on the Suffolk badges, but at the end of your second attached post, you do say, "there is one genuine solid centre sort" I'm simply trying to find out what that one looks like, how about this one?

Yes that’s the genuine BM badge I referred to. Believed to be WW2 era.
