Default Staffordshire Regiment

This bi-metal Staffordshire Regiment OR's badge is a recent find, but what is it exactly? Either new metal, PRI/museum shop or fantasy?

Almost 6000 members, 72 views and nobody has a clue? Surely the badge can't be that obscure. Please give it a(nother) look and let me know what you think.

Rgds,

Thomas.
