Default Royal Artillery Economy

Id be most grateful if one of our RA collectors could let me know whether this is an EI or just a copy.
Thanks in anticipation.

Normally a solid wheel for EI and usually on a slider. It may be an early RA badge on lugs as opposed to a copy.

The UBIQUE scroll is higher than standard and a feature of Canadian RA.

A 1916 economy badge would be on a slider and largely unpierced.
