Yes, officers wore the collar badge in the beret at one time, and no hackle - I don't know when the y started wearing the hackle, perhaps with the formation of RRF.
A photo of members of Support Platoon, "Y" Coy, 1RNF in Aden, Lt Riddick 2nd from the left. He's not wearing a hackle (though of course lack of hackle could be down to a reason not connected to rank) and his beret badge isn't very distinct.
