    2 RS iabs for review

    Hi
    Would like to run these two past you for opinions please.
    Badge with large RS purchased from a member some time ago and I am pretty sure its ok. the small RS marked badge was purchased from a very respected dealer some time ago-Difficult to photograph as it is so bright.
    All opinions appreciated
    many thanks

      the RS mark on the second one, is it RS or R.S. with periods? If it has the periods, it looks just like mine

          The silver RS looks like a bad casting.

            I could be wrong but I think I read somewhere that some badges from this maker (maybe not the IAB, could be another badge) have very feint periods between the letters or none at all due to a clogged die. With that said, I dont care too much for the silver one.

              Thanks for the replies.
              I purchased the silver from a well known dealer and forum sponsor in August 2006 for 120 euros-Would it be in order to direct him to this thread and look for a refund after all this time?
              Your opinions would be appreciated
              thanks

                    Could be good news??
                    Here are a few more pics-Difficult to picture as the finish is so bright.
                    Thanks yet again

                            Looks like repainted.

                              I agree the reverse looks "tacky" in the first pics, and I don't think the lighting helps in the other pics..

                              The head looks strange also.

                              I know many RS IABs show up with hardly any finish remaining but from time to time you do see better finishes..

                              Here is one of mine to compare

                              cheers
