Hi,

I think it is one half of a cape-clasp. Here is a photo of my Shropshire example for comparison.

Cheerio,

Yes, I agree cape-clasp. I am not sure if it's Royal Artillery, or Grenadier Guards.

I don't believe its to the Grenadier Guards, but it could be Royal Engineers and mid Victorian. IMHO

Some fusilier regiments wore grenade cloak collars. But can't confirm that's what it is.

Thanks for replies on this.
I found it in amongst 1/2/3 ww1/11? badges, in a cupboard at my Grandmas house.
Nothing exciting, but I guess originals.
