Hi All
Opinions on this please. There is no sweat hole behind the slider but I'm not sure if that is a definitive factor.
Cheers,
Alex

This pattern was worn right up until introduction of the AA version in the 1950s so plenty later badges (and a few earlier ones - Lambourne) exist without braze holes.

I would have no hesitation in saying your badge is genuine.
