Default More Norfolk Yeomanry badges

The badge on the left has been deemed as a copy/fake on this forum before, but looking into the history of this particular badge, it was bought in the mid 1960's for 7/6 (37.5p) from an old collector who was also a museum curator.

It is a slightly larger version of the right hand badge which has had a slider replaced and is I believe accepted as original.

Thoughts are willingly accepted on this query, thanks in advance.

Default Norfolk Yeomanry

Hi Rob personally I do not like those yellow lugged badges they seem shoddy and thin and what I would call wafty. Plus most of them look like they were made yesterday. The second badge I like. I've seen lots of NY photos and badges etc and IMOO the second badge is more like it. My GT Uncle wore a small ADC type cast theatre made badge in North Africa and it survived with home for 3 years as a POW so it's not an exact science.
