Hello,
Congrats on collecting CEF badges!
To clear the air a bit your badge could be a collar or a cap! They were worn as both depending on supply and demand availability etc The maker of this is probably OB Allan they made alot of them!
CEF badges have gone up in price over the last few years so be warned! There a few restrikes or fakes out there! Arty badges and a few others.
I would reccommend getting some good reference books Babins only gives picture of the badge and variations. Try and pick up a Charlton guide 2nd edition on WW1 CDN Infantry Badges it provides more info but take it with a grain of salt its a guide only!
CEF badge collecting provides many twists and turns
If you would like further clarification contact Paulbear he will further substaniate what I have told you here!
He is also a great resource and very knowledgable when it comes to the CEF. I have made a great friend also ! He is on the forum so don't be afraid to contact him !
