Default Bushveld Carbineers shoulder title ?

I have had this somewhat crudely made title for some while now. I always thought that it might be for the Bushveld Carbineers, but then it might be something else entirely. I showed it to a badge collecting friend who said it was to the Bushveld Carbineers. He said that he had seen a similar title in the Bushveld Carbineers Museum , a private museum situated in an hotel near Pietersburg which specialises in historical tours of the area. Evidently someone had excavated a couple of these titles from a dump behind a building which had been used by the Carbineers in the Boer War. I like the story ( but then I would, wouldn't I ?). What do you think ?
