Hi, Sorry to throw the cat among the pigeons with this one, but there is a legitimate 11th Hussars large bullion badge but not sure if it is beret or hat. Granted not worn by regimental officers but this set was worn by a Band Master attached to the Regiment. The set was given to me some years ago by a friend and the son of the Band Master. Size Large: 66mm height, small: 43mm height.
Regards
Andrew
