H P C 's very very basic knowledge in military collecting I would expect anyone who is collecting 'badges ' to have sat down with a ref book first

As you joined the forum in 2009 with numerous posts -1659 I would expect H P C's has been the topic of many posts here

Searches using 'HPC' or 'H P C' produce no results. A search using 'Helmet Plate Centre' produces 263 hits. However, not all are relevant.

Search terms for HPCs can be difficult.
They’re also difficult due to restrikes from original dies and die flaws being an indicator (or not) in some cases. Often very nice badges which considering their age and craftsmanship is not always reflected in their value. |

General rule is four staple loops to the rear, usually some of them are missing. Avoid those with two regular loops.

Many thanks to members who provided unsarcastic comments. Can member who uses ' btns ' as his user name explain what btns means ?

And yet you felt the need to try and demean another member? If that was not the case I'm sure you could have used different language. Methinks thou dost protest too much sir- a cheap shot! Regards Mark
