Southern Rhodesia Volunteers

[Tinto]

Hi All,

Here is a Southern Rhodesia Volunteers badge for your comment. Cox states the badge was in gilding metal but this one appears to be in bronze metal.
Is it possible to date this badge?

Thanks,
Tinto

Yours is gilding metal with a very old patina making it look like bronze. These are c.1898 to c.1920 if memory serves.

Thanks for the clarification, Steven.
Cheers, Tinto
