Some badges I've been meaning to post
Finally, here are the two badges I've been meaning to post which came up in discussion a couple of months ago. I can't find the original posts so I've started a new one. The first is for grenadierguardsman and is the Fifeshire Artillery Volunteers, forage cap (pre-1902), general pattern, WM, as for Grenadier Guards (KK838). The second is the Wiltshire Regiment, Officers’, BM.

David,
I suspect that the Wiltshire Regiment is a Birmingham Mint product, http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...hp?albumid=767 Tim

The first badge is the generic pattern for the whole of the UK Volunteer Artillery pre-1902 and NOT just Fifeshire.
