Default Northamptonshire and The Queen's economy

Good afternoon

A couple of 1916 pattern badges which I'm not 100 % sure of. Please could you kindly comment on these.

Thanks

Martyn

The Queen's is good: it’s an unmarked F. E. Woodward example. Nice badge.

Many thanks JT. Somebody else also mentioned that it is probably a Woodward. That's good to know.

I was 50/50 on the Northampton. The obverse looks good but opinions welcome on this one.

For comparison here are some pics of a marked and an unmarked badge side by side:

Thanks again. I can see the similarities in the striking and slider.

Any more comments regarding the Northamptonshire?
