Although Patt 5032/1900 was indeed sealed with EW loops, but there appears to be a non regular issue with a slider.


The badge is described as flatter and the circle is smaller than the Sgts badge.

It measures 4.26mm NS and EW.

Nice cap star, there are two different patterns on sliders.

Thank you Julian and Andy. I was unsure of it on arrival, I think the colour tone seemed unusual but I like the sturdy slider. Regards, Paul.
