It looks like an anodised aluminium badge I have in my collection. When I acquired it I was informed that it was issued to members of the regimental band (circa 1953-1968). My informant, who had a long-standing association with the band, could not explain why it had a king's crown. However, it should be remembered that the Strathcona's were not issued with queen's crown badges until 1965.
