That's interesting, I was hoping/wondering if the one I show in post no. 2 is a headgear badge as it has the stem of a long wire lug and another appears to have been removed and replaced with another fitting, now broken.
Compared to the badge in post no. 1 it's thicker, not as delicate, and of course in a white metal rather than gilt finish.
Parkyn mentions the lion and Brittania being used as an officer's headgear badge, the shoulder belt plates he shows have the addition of a tablet at the base of the badge.
