I have quite a few varieties of both the coiled bugle (also the slung bugle badges), worn by various rifle regiments around the empire. Apart from the 1 - 4 numbered (coiled) NSW Inf it is now impossible to tell which regiment wore which variety. There are a smaller facing pair of collar badges, and an extra large pouch badge, others worn on pouches with separate crown or in the centre of a HP.
I have often thought I might one day attempt to put them in a Forum album but have never worked out how. I have pictures already of a lot of them.
I have no idea, as I wrote before, whether one of them might be a Reserve rgt.
