Hi Guys,
This badge has just been left with me, when I told the owner I thought it was fake because of the lack of detail he was adamant that his grandfather had brought it back from the war.
The pin and hinge seem consistent for a late war GB badge however my concern was the lack of detail to the eagles head and rivets.
Is it possible the badge is just worn? Or perhaps the plating is so heavy it has filled the detail to the eagles eye, rivets etc. or maybe the die was nearing the end of it's life?
would appreciate your thoughts on this one.
