If genuine it should be more than 50 years old and have been made before 1966 when the Royal Jackets were formed and black on scarlet badges were replaced.
There is a smaller version in black on scarlet said to worn by 2GR.
I probably have most of the colour variations in my collection but very difficult to date them!
