Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if this is correct?

I've got in my mind one of the clues is the text being visible but I'm not sure.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael

TBH it looks like one of the fake WM KC RM badges with the crown cut/snapped off.

Hope this helps

Graham

Sorry, not sure what you mean? The badge you show looks fake with the crown cut off. Post a picture of the back to be sure.

Morning All,

Having read your comments I have had a look at the badge and you are spot on Graham.

Now I'm looking for a crown being removed it's really obvious. Luckily I didn't pay much for it.

Thanks for the help,

Michael
