Motto - Chad - Junk?
This came with a couple of other badges. As you can see it has a hole drilled in the top of the Scull and two very small rings on the reverse. So is it any good?

Hiya rob I expect you would blink if you had a hole drilled in your head :

Very poor copy ...... somebody obviously shot it through the skull to put it out of its misery.

One I used to own - which I always thought was a good'un. Clearly it was an indiscriminate massacre!

Lugs chopped off, hole in skull - "mounted" on a board by a collector or museum (as the IWM used to do but hopefully no longer do).

Hi Guys
Just to clear the air a little, this is a copy of a cap Motto, poor thing, probably needs a Bex and a good lay down, a Chadd is an arm Motto and has different proportions, A cap motto is wider that it is high and a Chadd is taller than it is wide, it also has a different Bones structure and the Or GLORY scroll has Swallow tailed ends, not squared off ends. Regards Phil. |

Thanks Griff. After sorting out reasonable postage I went for it. I had noticed the hobbed letters on other badges but until I came across mention in your threads it was not something that I had given any thought to. Regards, Paul.

... Its why I do not like dirty badges..... it hides so much detail.
