The Worcestershire's then the WFR had a tradition of wearing a pouch badge. I suspect this is what it is. Shame Mercian's couldn't carry the tradition on.

I think this is a 1970s reproduction of a Worcestershire Regiment pouch badge as suggested. There were lots of them around at one point and I suspect this one has been artificially aged.
