I'm not at all sure about the chinstrap though, would a 1964 - 1967 worn cap have plastic rather than leather.
I'd like to check for a manufacturer's mark on the badge slider but doubt I'd get the badge off the cap without inflicting damage.
Were the brass clips for slidered badges introduced on the assumption that as an anodised aluminium badge didn't need to be polished it didn't need to be removed from the cap?
I have an officer's badge but I think that's had the lugs removed.
