British, Commonwealth and foreign.

Original, probably mostly WW1.

Nothing too special.

The Royal Regiment of Artillery badge is missing the top (Crown & Scroll + shank).
Shoulder title RF City of London has the T removed, this did happen officially.
There should possibly be more below the Grenade & LF.

Top left is French, presumably a shako plate but offhand I don't know which era it's from.

The eagle is Napoleon III.
It could be military or civil service.

I have similar but with a number (2 I think) stamped through a sphere at the centre of the lightening bolts, worn on the shako by 2nd Infantry and 2nd Light Infantry Regiments.
