Hi Gary, here is a pic of mine which I promised to show you. This one was Vet obtained out of his photo ablum. The embroidery to the border to this one is actually a bit poor, but you will be able to see it is like the one Brad posted above.

Cheers, Ade.

Reverse. The traces of paper are from the photo album.

Gary B,
I agree with the other comments sorry, its a fake, and still visible on the back is the modern black embroidery paper that has been embroidered through

Hi Gary, Ade, and Bwanek,

Thanks for the pictures and comments. There is a distinct difference between mine and the ones shown. Now I know what to look for.

Thanks again (sale will be deleted).
