I saw that badge that you mentioned as illustrated in Radford's book. It is also in Owen as O3370, as you say Slouch Hat, Boer War. The badge as shown is a brass cut-out. The badge that I have is die cast and gilded, although the lettering looks very similar. My question is how a well made and pretty badge like this could have 'slipped between the cracks "and is not mentioned or shown in any of the reference works ?
Thanks for your interest and assistance.
Regards
Mike
