Default 13th ALH

Have been to see a collection of 40 plus badges that someone offered me. A lot were obvious repros, some were genuine badges which had the fittings removed and small holes drilled in them presumably to nail onto wood plaques.

I ended up with 3 items including the 13 ALH badge in the attached photos which has also had the lugs removed.

Any opinions on its originality or value much appreciated.

P.B.

This badge is been heavily faked over the years - I'll compare this to mine (which I'm pretty sure is real) and will let you know.
