I have a Queens West Surrey's lamb in white metal, as I recall it's a badge that looked "good" to me but is slidered.

Thanks - being slidered I'd take it to be the latter.

Most likely. There were a few VB badges with sliders but as the VBs were slow to adopt the full sized cap badge: many retained the side caps, often badgeless, after the Regulars switched to peaked caps c.1905.

I hope you don't mind me adding to this thread? If it is not in keeping with the subject, I apologize.
Two Welsh badges. The Welsh Regt. I have never been 100% on because of the very heavy crimp on the slider. |

You're right about Toby's example, it does have the flaw associated with the common copies. I'll post mine and my Welsh Reg't examples for you when I get home.

The badge whose image I posted is I think plated, but I no longer possess it. |

Thanks for all the replies. I didn't think that my 10 year old post might receive any further attention. The cap badge I have is not silvered and looks like the one Leigh Kitchen has posted. I suppose, this is what makes cap badges so interesting. All the reference books don't have all the answers. I seem to be settling on a sweetheart or reunion badge. Thanks again for the replies.
