I'm thinking it might be a very rare cap badge/FSH badge from 1902 to 1915.

Also I can't see the FR on the collars as mentioned by Alan. I thought the only badge to have the monogram was the large NCOs' eagle arm badge until the small unofficial cap badge of 1926.

Thanks

Thanks Tony
Do you think these might be 14th Hussars pre 1915?
Or are you sure they are 14th/20th? I've never seen these before.
I'd like to know what you think of the FSH badge I posted.
Cheers

Hi Bill ,

The 14/20th examples I posted cant be officers pre 1915 14th Hussar , as the GUANT mark London was only in used from 1940 -1959 .
To that end I’m 100% sure they are 14th/20th?
