Not one I’d buy.
Examples from the same die as the badge a certain ex-member is selling on eBay is what I would seek and are undoubtedly genuine. Their £225 price tag however is outrageous considering Bosley’s listed one on their regimental badges site for £150. |

Thanks Luke
Thanks Luke I new the economy badge was scarce so thought it would help to highlight it.

Here's my two. I've never been happy with either, but interesting all the same. The 'officer's' with blades is quite robust, the other is obviously sand cast with odd fixings N-S. Any comments welcomed.

Both of those badges are "bazaar" made sand cast, very probable Indian make for sale as replacement or souvenir badges to the soldiers stationed in the cantonments.
