It would be great if you could take and post some photos of the really early forage cap badges at the museum Andy (1838-1848). They are not shown in Kipling and King as you know. The GG are especially interesting because unlike the Coldstream and Scots their cap badges were not the same as those on the cartouche, where the garter had always been used instead (the GG original primary emblem).

P.S. there is a thread here that might interest you: https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/...guards/?page=2
