Default TOYE mark

Hello. I have been coming across the Toye mark with Birmingham phone number under it, is this a modern mark used on collectors market badges or a older mark used on badges say pre 2007, one of the badges seen was The Kings L'pool + Manc

Hi Iain,

The badge is good and so is the mark.

Information from Lt. Col. Robin Hodges document: Historical Record of the King’s Regiment 1958-2006 states that your badge was manufactured and despatched to the MoD in 2006.

It is not known, however, if the badge was actually issued or worn.

Regards

Chris
