Default R.E. shoulder title

Picked this up some time ago, then thought it was a fake as its in W.M. and could not see it in Westlake.

I keep seeing this badge and others like it ( IE only listed as brass in westlake )
so is it as i think a fake or am i mistaken.

Regards
Chris

Thanks rob, just could not find it in westlake book on shoulder titles.
Thankfully I don’t often bin suspect badges, but keep them for reference.

Thanks for the input malcolm. i should have realised that, bit slow of me. after all with all the different variations ETC no one could document every single one. am keeping an eye on your site for when you get some RE shoulder titles in stock.
Regards
Chris
