Thank you, that is the first one that I have ever seen where the elephant and tiger are gilt rather than white metal as stipulated in dress regulations. Some regiments had reversed metals for Militia battalions and I wonder if that is the case here. I don't think that they would have reversed the bullion grenade, but they might well have done so with the devices. Curious!
