Welcome to the Forum.

What you have here is an Australian , 1930 to 42 period 48th battalion The Torrens Regiment militia hat badge, its South Australian, the Torrens River runs through Adelaide. It looks to be a good original badge and if you are going to collect Aussie battalion hat badges its a good place to start. The collar badges are the same as the centre of the hat badge but not voided and only 30mm high.

Regards Phil.

It was pointed out on another forum the the crown should be pierced as in the pic. Was there manufacturing differences?
