    An array of badges-are these fantasy?

    I don't buy these often, I would like them for my own case though as these have undeniable visual appeal, the problem is that this seller has listings loaded down with fakes, so the question is: are these even period designs? they seem like possible ones but I have seen other convincing designs that were similiar to these that never existed during the TR era.
    Any thoughts/comments appreciated,
    Eric

    If not fantasy, they have been reproduced, so probably fakes. Ask to see the backs.
    Discussed before on the forum.
    Do a search.
    Regards,

            Most, if not all of these, certianly existed- but are now heavily copied....hard to tell if these are good or not from low quality pictures....but the details look VERY SOFT....originals have extremely sharp/clear highlites, etc. and the enamel is of high quality... (I don't like what I am seeing....so far)

            Post better pictures of the "fronts" of acouple showing the "winged man" detail.... for a better opinion.

                    Hi John, would you have a sprinkling of proof to add any weight to this comment?
