Hi Bill, I don't have an example of this badge in my collection. I have had the opportunity to handle many examples at the Regimental Museum.

One thing that stood out in my mind with these badges was the odd look at the reverse of the crown (like the one you show).

I will have to review my notes when I get home, but if I recall correctly, the Officers version of this badge should be gilted. Is there any evidence of gilting?? As I say here, I will check my notes when I get home to be sure.

I see nothing about this badge that sets off any alarms for me. I would be very happy with it.

Thank you for sharing this one. I like it very much.
