Dating Brecknockshire badge with scroll ribbons
This was on a dealers' website. Can any of the Welsh collectors put a date to this design variant? Looking at the mark it must be post WW2?

WW1 vintage as Brookies said.
That badge is ex-Bosley’s from a sale a number of months ago. I am very certain it has a replacement (and unfortunately far more modern) slider. |

Thank you all. I assume that this is before the other pattern was sealed in 1916. As Luke says the slider is likely to be a replacement if that is the case.

Evening all.
If you have a look at (all albums) The Brecknockshire Regiment photo 7 you will see the badge being worn. Ta Jonathan |

I've just bought one of these long scroll badges and it has the distinct slider. I thought it best to buy when available as I have yet to form an idea of what is good or bad when looking at the shorter scroll badge.
I note though how the longer scroll is separately attached in a similar way to some short scroll versions that have caused some doubt on the forum. Is anyone comfortable to list good and bad points to look for with a short scroll version of the 1914-1918 period, or post images of short/standard length scroll badges of that period? Regards, Paul.
