Imperial Navy Silver WB

As I'm sure there are some Imperial collectors here, what do you think of the Imperial Navy Silver WB that I posted on the Imperial forum?

I believe that style badge is heavily faked. I had a black in that style which was fake and very easy to bend. Regards, Ron.

Ron thanks for your comment.

I've given it the bend test - it won't bend when put under a large amount of pressure.

Anyone got any other comments?

fugpaw,

These along with chaplains and cloth WBs are in the gray area and perhaps you will never know the real thing.

Thanks Chris.

It is proving hard to get to the truth on this one. I have shown it to a couple of Imperial collectors I know, their opinion was fairly positive - but they have some reservations.
