Fake pill box cap badge for the Royal Marine Artillery.

Millions on ebay and been around for years with 1,2 & 3 chevrons.

Yes, amended. I should add that there is no evidence that i know of that the version with 3 chevrons ever existed as Sgt's wore gold lace in lieu of a badge.

The Bombadiers and Corporals did exist but the millions circulating these days are not the real deal.
