Scots Guards Solid Silver Pagri?
Attached are three images of a large solid silver Scots Guards badge, not hallmarked.
It measures 53 x 53 mm across the points and weighs 30.3 g. The loops are very substantial and are 19 mm (3/4") long.
The Guards Museum doesn't have one like this. The nearest one to it I've seen is one that Rod Flood has for sale with the centre pierced and hallmarked 1936 - and he is not sure what his is either!
Kilt pins are similar but there are no marks N-S to suggest its been modified.
So is this an officers' pagri badge for the white full dress FSH? Or what?
All thoughts welcome.
