tredhed2 Posted July 19, 2018 Share #3 Posted July 19, 2018 I don't know about the curve of the 6s, but the orange backgrounds on the fakes are the biggest giveaway. TM tabs like this are exceedingly rare and especially on an ofcr's coat. The battalion was given approval to wear them at Hood, which is why there are so many US made (both period original and repros). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortaydc60 Posted July 19, 2018 Share #4 Posted July 19, 2018 Dave my tip on fakes has to do with the round curve detail found under the the H and S. Color maybe off from pic,etc. For me the round curve was 100% found on all good tabs. Also the material appears different from those usually seen so does open up possibility of handmade. The lettering seems uneven and not sharp lines; due to cleaning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocsfollowme Posted July 19, 2018 Share #6 Posted July 19, 2018 Here is one that old club badges sells Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortaydc60 Posted July 19, 2018 Share #7 Posted July 19, 2018 Have not seen this Old Club version and it does look similar to that on jacket. Appears they may have picked up on the round curve feature. Also as Dave mentioned the Orange background is classic of fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
