Depending on the Battalion and date the FSH badges varied even for the same regiment. Any FSH metal badge (like all the HPC conversions) was likely never actually worn.
However unless it's a maker's error, the FSH was the type of hat that a slidered badge would be authorised for.
My point is it may be an officially authorised FSH badge: but never worn that was laterley subsequently used with a shortened slider when badges were in short supply.
