Nice selection of pins. The 203rd Bn is a bit unusual in that they used the cap badge design for the sweetheart, rather than the collar badge. I have had a 203rd collar badge pattern as well.
Any maker marks on these?

Nice pins indeed. I particularly like the 203rd with the blue '3'. Same comment as Bill, mine is a collar badge pattern. Cheers, Ian.

Dan, really well done indeed.

What a cracking set of badge.

Great to see.

Roy.

The mark is recorded as GA & S, but there isn't an attribution. Dates fit the time period. http://www.silvermakersmarks.co.uk/M...mingham-G.html

hi dan
awesome items. i can see why these are a complete collecting field.
i assume some would be rarer, more desirable than others.
what sort of $ value do these have?
