Hi. the badge on the left is mine with the void under the crown.
I was looking for opinions on the right hand badge please, it does feel and look okay but just like to be sure, you know how it is ...

Iain,
I've probably half a dozen makers variations of the KC pattern C.Rngrs badge, and without exception they all have a void between the base of the crown and the harp!

I'd say it is a repro!

Don't always be put off by something that looks too new to be pre 1922! lol
