Hi
The badge is a collar badge of the 1st Wellington Battalion (NZ). The cap badge is approximately 45mm high. In 1911 the NZ Army was reorganised and the 1st Battalion became the 5th (Wellington Rifles) Regiment and retained its original badge. Following WW1, the badge was redesigned to include a bottom scroll. Your badge is from the pre 1911-1920.
Cheers
John
