Iraq Levies Silver Officers - What should one pay?
My friend has offered to me a genuine Iraq Levies Silver officers (cast) badge. The sort with the long thin stick pin rectangular slider.
I would like to make an offer that is honest Does anyone know what is the correct money to pay? Having trawled through every concept500 web site and what material remains online from past Bosleys sales I have been unable to reach a price. Kindest regards.

I haven't been keeping track, but I do know they tend to be rather expensive!

Hi,
Are you 100% sure it is silver? Here is a photo of my example. It looks silver but is not. As to price for the cap and shoulder badges I think my total was around £150 Cheerio, Roy

Thank you for your replies chaps.
To answer your question Roy....yes....silver officers. I have tested the oxide. Did officers also wear a white metal badge? This one has the broken slider so with that reasoning and your estimations....100 should be fine? Same badge top left: http://www.britairforce.com/raf_levies.htm

Hi,
It certainly looks like silver too. A lovely looking badge, shame about the slider but there you go. The price certainly seems in the ball park. Good luck and let us know how you get on. Cheerio, Roy

Will do Roy. Will show the seller the thread.
Last time I wasn't able to secure that rather nice Sudanese Railways badge I wanted :-(
