Rising Sun cap or collar
Hi All Down Over,
I bought this rather nice Rising Sun badge as a cap badge but suspect from the size it's a collar; can you advise? Seems to be bronze? WP_20170517_001[1495].jpg regards, Iain

No problem Iain, let me know if you want accurate measurements and / or weights. - and sorry, I misspelt your name!
Cheers, Tim |

Hello Tim,
I was actually looking for one to put on a slouch hat that was from Tobruk so the size would be useful, thanks regards, Iain

Hello Iain
During WW1 Australian Imperial Force soldiers wore the larger Rising Sun badge on their slouch hats, however when wearing the peaked caps I think you will find most of the cap badges were the same size as the collar badge so technically you do have a cap badge. Dennis |

Hello Dennis,
many thanks, so is this a WWI version? And only worn on the peaked cap? regards, Iain Quote:
