Smile King's Colonials Regimental badges

Hi all,

An Officers gilt set of King's Colonials Regimental Officers badges bearing the letters KC surmounted by the The Prince of Wale's plumes (K&K 1371), worn post-1901.

These are an original die-cast set made by Firmin but not marked.

Regards Dean.

Thanks Phil and Roy,

I have quite an affinity for King's Colonial badges and so was very pleased to have these to add to the collection.

Not sure if they would survive the drive up the mountain to see you Phil !

Hope to get to see you soon, regards Dean.

Thanks David,

All I had before was the King's Colonial device as a stick pin. Well pleased, cheers Dean.
