Well I thought I best put this badge up so you are aware of it.
Below is a FAKE Kings Crown Irish Regiment of Canada Officers Cap Badge. I have seen a few of these come up on eBay and the shows the odd time. This one is marked COPY so as to not deceive anyone. However there are many others out there that are NOT marked.

A quick note in regards to the IrRC Cap badges will help a bit to understand this. In WWII there was a distinct Officers Badge and ORs Badge.

In the post war era, when the Regiment switched over to the Queens Crown badges, they used a pattern based on the WWII era Officers Badge, and other than a slight colour difference they are the same.

I have never seen in use, a badge to the Regiment that looks like this one below. The wire loops are thinner than one expect, there are cut/flashing marks at the base of the crown, and the lowest star point is not sharp/defined as it should be.
