Default 6th East Sussex and Leeds Pals for once over

Hello, I recently acquired these two badges as a pair. Having looked at hundreds of fake Leeds Pals over the years I feel confident I have found a good one. However I'm not so sure of the 6th East Sussex. Opinions would be very welcome. David.

David, I think you mean 6th East Surrey as opposed to 6th East Sussex.

Which I think is OK, although blackened brass are always IMO hard to judge.

Sorry, I did mean East Surrey. Thank you both for your quick replies. I’m pleased with your conclusions. David

I'd agree, the Leeds Pals has all the indicators of a good one.
