Default Rifle brigade

I received a large lot of QVC badges this morning . It was an ebay purchase that I found with only 20 minutes left on the bid. It was a fast decision to buy/not buy so no time to research.Also no back view of the badges were provided. I have very little knowedge on QVC so I hope the forum will indulge me as I list what I've got. I think I've done O.K. on the lot but they could all be restrikes.... if they are don't laugh...

Hi Jim,

This appears to be a Rifle Brigade officer's pouch belt badge.

Given the inclusion of the "Ashantee" honour it points to it being the pattern that was worn between 1876 and 1881.

Very nice Jim.

Regards

Ry
