The shape and the bent mark of the slider are good points but the strike is very bad

Could be a Lambourne badge, not known for their quality

Greetings.

Not a Lambourne offering, they have a very distinctive central tower, amongst other pointers.

In my opinion a genuine badge albeit a, perhaps slightly poorly struck or damaged example of what I "call" an 8 7 9 badge, (based on the courses of bricks on left block, turret and main block).

In addition, this is one of the more frequently seen dies.

Regards.

Brian
