Hi, could I please get an opinion on these 6 ecomony infantry badges.
If the photos are not good enough, or you would like individual photos, please just ask.
Thank you
Mike

Well the Worcs is not an economy as they only came in brass.

Of the rest the Sussex is the best. The Easy Surrey and Lancs need better picture. The remainder are not good badges looking at the colouring..

There is nothing obviously wrong with either as far as I can see.

Question Suffolk economy badge

I don't like the Suffolk economy badge, there should (IMO) be a gap between the oakleaves and the crown.

Default Sussex

Rob, thanks for your expertise. I have a lot to learn, I actually thought the Sussex with a well defined strike and a slightly tapered slider with a crimp line was the best. I really do appreciate the expert advice.
