RFC badge authenticity
Wondered if anyone can say if this badge is authentic or not.

You keep showing your badges upside down, can you not show them the right way up ?

I personally think this is a modern repro, due to it's condition, the poor piercing of the crown and the "F" slightly encroaching on the crown. It would be good to see the lug attachment point? I have turned the pictures.

I would say, just from the photographs, that it is.

Thanks for the additional photos. The lugs look OK but what concerns me is that the badge appears to be in unissued condition, so why is there brass polish residue on the back?

My father bought this from a 'reputable' dealer's shop in Taunton. It is as it was sold.

Incidentally, if the badge is uninsured - what exactly does that mean in terms of its history?
