Rifle Brigade officers cap badge hallmarked

2 Attachment(s)

hi all
I'm trying to identify what year this badge was made?
its a V but unsure if its a 1920 or 1945?
it does have WW1 battle honors so I'm going to guess 1920 was to early for them to have appeared? or am I wrong?
also, what do you think this item would be worth as I may move it on in the future. (if I do I will offer to the forum first)
regards

It’s the post 1927 version with the additional battle honours and title scrolls. As officers silver badges go they’re not rare.

There is currently one for sale on the Quartermaster Store for £75, the item number would suggest it’s been there a while which may or may not be a reflection of its pricing.
