Default QVC Loyal North Lancashire cap badge, reversed metals

Hello, forum Members,

I have got these new acquisitions from my Local coin/medal shop and thought I would share them on the forum.
One is a reversed metals Qvc, a stay bright Loyals and a larger cast all brass badge which is probably a third bigger than normal.
Any views or information on these would be much appreciated.

Best regards Shane

hey Shane
I cant answer any of your questions but I think well done.
I don't know why the QVC badge is reversed however it looks like an officers badge and I think you have a great item there
cheers

Hi Shane, a very nice little haul you have there, the reverse metals is the 3rd Bn (Militia) as bc says it does look like an Officers badge which is quite rare even the ORs version is too,the AA looks very nice and the larger one is what I think is a Bandsman's Pouch Badge but I will post a pick of mine later with size etc.
Regards
Paul

I Shane,
Here is my Loyal North Lancs Bandsman's Pouch Badge next to a standard badge,
Not sure of the size of your badge in comparison to a standard one, also I don't know why it is not bimetal .

Paul it's about the same size as your bi metal pouch badge. Looking at the back it could be cast.
