I would also offer the 6th Hants in gold a/a as I only know of one example in existence.

Hi Guys,
There are plenty of rare A/A cap badges of which only one genuine example is known of e.g.
Glasgow University OTC = scroll of GLASGOW UNIVERSITY TC (TA)
Oxford University UTC [Tudor]
London University UTC [Tudor]
No idea what the 6th Hants is though - is this the (Hampshire Carabiniers Yeomanry? If so, it is a fake knocked up with a LB&B type slider.
re: Sussex Yeomanry - the QC version is rarer than the KC item.
Kingsley - In
Anodised Aluminium: The 'No Bull' Cap Badge of the British Army -
Appendix 5: Authorised and Manufactured Cap Badges and
Appendix 6: Manufactured Cap Badges of the Army Cadet Force and the Combined Cadet Force will give you the info/ that you need.
Regards
Chris
