Default King's Own Scottish Borderers

You have the officer's Forage Cap badge which is quite rare.

The description from the Dress Regulations for 1891.

"In gilt metal, a Thistle wreath; within the wreath a circle pierced with the designation "The King's Own Scottish Borderers". Above the Circle, a scroll surmounted by the Royal Crest. The scroll pierced with the motto, "In veritate religionis confido". Over the circle the Cross of St. Andrew in burnished silver, on the Cross the Castle of Edinburgh in silver. On the wreath at the bottom. a scroll in gilt metal with the motto, in relief, "Nisi dominus frustra"."
