Just in case the text below the picture is illegible, or can't be enlarged, briefly it states that the collection was put together by The Bandmaster of 11th Hussars in 1900, who purchased the badges directly from Army Stores.
Hugh King bought it for £55.00 in 1955.

Wow! That's some serious coin as I would say a hefty premium would have been added to the final hammer price?
