Hi Mike, The RCAC badge with the screw posts looks like an officer's pattern. It was struck from a different die. Some of the first qc pattern were modified kc badges, with the St Edwards crown replacing the Tudor crown. But, for what purpose is a question. The head dress of the corps was the beret, and screw posts would be problematic. The 6 Hussars is also a puzzle. Their badge was either white metal or frosted silver or osd. Perhaps this example is an unfinished osd? Finally, there are many variations of the Canadian Armoured Corps title. This appears to be a good example of one of the variations.
