Royal Bucks Hussars Visor Cap

Acquired this cap recently ( yeomanry caps are hard to come by) a rare cap with a crown in a contrasting colour.
Not certain of the date, but the regiment was converted to artillery in 1920.

Yes, it's # 67. I assumed the dark area behind the badge was a patch; it is rather indistinct.
