Recently found in a box of spare and odd badges: a cap badge of the 4e Régiment de Tirallieurs Tunisiens. Made by Drago, Paris-Nice, I am not sure what 25 R. Béranger III é stands for, though....

Thank you so much! So I am glad this badge could have been worn by a veteran of the Italian Campaign (Battle of Belvedere)
