The cypher turns up on sliders with lugs in gilt etc I suspect some of the lugged examples are ADC.
I’ve attached some images one provided by a forum member I’m sorry I can’t remember who the other is 100% NY but it’s hard to be sure on the badge.
Be good of anybody can shed more definitive light on it.

I have just read this post.
Around 1985-6 I was sent a brass EIIR badge by the NRPS (Non-Regular Permanent Staff) Admin Officer of (I believe) Norfolk and Suffolk Battery RA that had been sitting in his desk draw. It is somewhere but I cannot find it.
