1st Royal Dragoons (Analysis)
Hi All
This particular cap badge to the 1RD has been a chin rubber for me..... you see many examples of this one, but whats good and whats less so?
Here are three examples of what I think is the genuine article.... they have crimped sliders and also a "join mark" on the scroll tabs that fix to the crown.
* The tail of the lion is not joined to its back and there is a strengthening bar joining the tail to the head of the lion.
** To date I have not found a genuine x3 loop example of this particular cap badge.
