Default RTR Arm Badges

Hi Guys,

I was lucky enough to pickup these RTR arm badges from a fellow forum member (thank you sir!) and was wondering if anyone could help me with what period these may have been worn?

Regards,

Mick

Did the fellow forum member you got them off not tell you anything about them.

For example their age or originality?

regards

I didn't ask as I have no issue with authenticity. Just not 100% certain on when they were worn (and the seller wasn't sure either).

Hi Mick, sorry I might have mislead you. No 4 is British, I forgot to look in my sealed patterns. It is sealed 26-1-61, authority NV/82/03, last released in 1982, hope this and the above helped. Best wishes Mike
