The QVC badge would have been made with lugs until 1902 then the pattern would have changed to K/C.
This in turn would have been replaced with a vertical shank fitting circa 1903 when the Brodrick was introduced. Whether the 16th Lancers actually wore this horrible hat it not known but with the introduction of the peaked cap the long slider would be cut down as per the badge shown in post 1.
I am not sure when the "The Queen's Lancers' title was introduced but it would seem to be about that time. Anyone know?
