Default QUEENS RIFLE VOLUNTEER BRIGADE

Anyone seen this type of badge before. It's about 2.5" square.

The badge is shown in Bloomer "Scottish Regimental Badges 1793-1971" on Plate 7.No.40

The description is "Queens Edinburgh Rifle Volunteer Brigade,O/R`s pre 1888,black metal "

P.B.

Thanks PB.

Anyone have an idea on what would you think this should go for for if I sold it.

Thanks

Simon.

Hi Simon
Bloomer's price guide for 1982 has it at 45 quid. If you do decide to move it on, please keep me in mind.

Cheers Paul.

Yeah, I noticed. I think this one is too. I don't like the lugs; maybe I'm wrong.
