[nzef1940]

Greetings all.

I would appreciate thoughts on this badge please , described as having a replaced hinge and pin.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, this one has a replaced hinge and pin. You can see the heavy scrape marks on the left of the hinge, where the original hingebarrels were removed.

Thanks Tom

Would it be safe to assume this is a war time repair due to use in the field? plus I assume this knocks the value a fair way down?
