Sorry I don't collect them. My research field is sappers.

According to the Army Dress Manual Chapter 4 Badges and Emblems, the metal miniatures Gold, silver, bronze, are worn on Senior Rank Mess Dress, bullion on other mess dress. The full size on Polys, SD’s etc.

I have the 3 colours in full size and mini but I have never seen them at any of the army clothing stores. Regards Glenn

cheers Glenn
these came from a manufacturers sample/unwanted stock.
