Default Royal Canadian Mounted Police - opinions please.

Hello gents,

I'm over in NJ at the moment and found this at an antiques fair. I don't collect outside of Yorkshire/ASC/SIGNALS usually, but this fell to my magpie tendencies.

I'm assuming gilt, and officers. Not sure if cap or collar badge? It's approx 32mm high and 34mm wide.

My apologies for the poor photos.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Andy C

Looks good. Dimensions suggest a collar badge.

I agree with Bill and it would be a officers if it is gilt.

I've decided that as nice as this badge is, I really don't need another area to collect to.

Is anyone on here interested in it before it goes to eBay?

Cheers,

Andy C

I'm open to sensible offers Bill. I'm not really sure of the worth, but they seem to go for silly money on eBay.

Open to any trades in areas of my interest (see signature).

Cheers,
