Doubtful KOMR Cap Badge

4 Attachment(s)

I'm presently setting up a display for my Maltese Regimental Badges and came across a what seems a brass badge belonging to the KOMR that's put some doubts. Compared to the others I have from the period, it seems to be to small for an officer's cap badge yet slightly to large for a collar badge. It's 36mm in length and 31mm in width. The details are very crude and lack sharpness. Any thoughts?

Vincent,

Looks like a contemporary cast badge.
Unsure if its for the cap or collar.

regards

Thanks Simon. My thoughts too. Size wise fits in the middle of both. What doesn't convince me is it's roughness and lack of fine details.

Thanks again.
