Okay...I have to agree with you, being I am unfamiliar with Polish military badges. Obviously, it is a different situation than German, US, etc.etc. I was just trying to use logic to state my opinion. The thread sort of got "off track" from the OP dilemma. So the recommendation is to move the entire lot as a grouping. That is what the OP was inquiring about.
I am always open to learning new topics, forgive me if I irritated you in the process
Thank you for clearing it up !

Having said all of that We would still like to see the back of the 6th Armor Badge. Should have a number on reverse as well.

Thanks again for all your input and 'real steel' I am never irritataed by anyones comments or opinions, they are all relevant.
I shall over the next couple of days be photographing all of the items in detail and submitting the photos to the forum for reference by way of a thank you for all the assistance. I have discussed the situation with the owner of the items and I suspect the way we will go is to split the collection into two groups. the medals/ribbons/photo/& any documentation as 1 lot so that at least the group is kept together and the memory sustained and then dispose of the badges and regalia individually. I accpet that in a way that seems a shame but the owner made one relevant point which I couldnt deny in that if sold as a complete collection (& I suspect the financial reward would be slightly less) what is to stop the buyer who perhpas is either a badge/regalia collector or a medal collector, splitting the set and selling off what he doesnt want. I supose its a dilemma to which there isnt a single solution.
I shall try and make a start on photographoing the badges & regalia first and post them on the forum in the next couple of days.
