hi all
another unknown badge to me but hoping someone recognises it.
looks to be CR or a RC with the roman numeral X.
looks to have Boer war period type lugs.
ive been thinking
New Zealand, 10th Canterbury rifles?
South African 10th Cape Rifles
maybe even Canadian?
any ideas appreciated

Hi BC,

Your badge is Danish Royal Life Guards regiment, King Christian 10th, Denmark, 1917-47, B. Is also worn with a crown above it.

Thought it was a royal cypher but extensive research ( 5 x minutes googling on the interweb ) failed to solve the mystery.
