I can't say with certainty if the ones shown are good or not. The fakes of this patch are good quality fakes. Personally I prefer the examples that have a flat spot on top of the HJ Diamond. The examples with the flat point on the diamond I've seen all look good with nice honest looking wear to them.

Have a look at this one that Garry used to own. You'll see what I am refering to.

Sorry Ewin, no pics of the reverse. Be really careful with these patches. The fakes are pretty well made. I was burned on a fake from Manion's Auctions many many years ago. The pointed diamond versions are accepted by most as period pieces also, and mostly appear unworn. I prefer the flat topped myself, just what I like personally.

Thanks for contributing the photos. Yours looks like a nice period example Steve. Here's a link to the thread where Steve has the patch up for sale.
