Default Loyal Regiment genuine?

I know very little about stabrite badges. I bought this in a job lot, so paid a couple of pounds max. I was amazed to see examples on eBay advertised at £50!! Reading on this forum it appears to be a scarce badge. With my luck I am sure it will be pronounced as a fake. The lot included about 50/50 fake to good badges. Anybody put me out of my misery or make my night!!
Thanks, John

Is it a "staybrite" anodised aluminium badge? Looks like a badge from the Birmingham Mint collection to me. Note how the crown is attached.

Well spotted! Thought it was too good to be true.
Thanks, another worthless badge!

Cheers
