WW1 1st Birmingham ( Pals ) Battalion Royal Warwickshire Regiment Other Ranks Cap Badge

Original slider, heavily polished to white metal body and torse which means shaggy coat is no longer distinguishable from the front (but discernable from the rear). Please note a very skillful solder repair to bottom section of chain and back foot evident from a thinning of metal on rear most leg with slight break still visible and the grey colouring of the metal on those points indicating some fine solder work. Looks like some of this solder may have run on to the low points on either side of the front of the scroll where it touches the ends of the torse . Correct 'goatie' beard and correct method of attaching scroll to the body, crimp mark to rear of slider and correct colour overall. Circa 5cm tall by 5.8cm wide. Condition, however, reflected in price, sold as seen but still a reasonable example of this scarce badge.

Please note, I am only prepared to send this item to a UK address.
