Looking at the fittings I wonder if this could be a sporran badge?

Peter,

What size is it?

Looks like a normal cap badge with those fittings. Although they are a bit further apart than any I've seen.

Out of my collecting period, but I am thinking a cross belt or pouch badge of some sort.

Thanks Bill,

It is a quality item in silver and gilt with separate crown and cypher held on by small nuts and bolts.

Are these not PRI O/Rs badges if they wanted to buy their own? If not, maybe SNCOs?

Its definately not a RHF sporran badge. The sporran badge was exactly the same as the Black Watch one.
