I have seen evidence of silver ones in service long before 1949 albeit mainly Officer badges, which would indicate that the gilding version was not particularly admired by the Regiment? I’m also unsure what collar badges would have been worn with the gilding double headed eagle badge.any ideas from KDG experts?
