Hi both different, bogey wheels to front, slider to the rear of both ( do these come with lugs? aware that lugs aren't good but is this set in stone? )

If someone has a good badge to post to assess the differences would appreciate it, many thanks Billy

Example on the left looks brand new, my advice would be to seek a refund, not very keen on the other, to be honest.

I would hang on to the right one. Don't rush to get rid. Regards, Paul.

K & K is too dark a picture, right one similar to an Officers marked Collar I have, would like to see a good one too compare against? Many thanks Billy

It should not be, in any way, similar, officers collars were die cast and very clearly, differ in size too, I would think the right example is okay, but, I would want a better one, that looks it's age, I certainly would not "discard" it.
