Default Princess of Wales Regiment?

Came across this today for £2
I assume it to be a HPC used by the Princess of Wales Regiment Band.
Can anyone confirm.
Cheers Tony.

Probably The Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment (Queen's and Royal Hampshires).

Hi Tony,

You'll see the HP in my PWRR Album. This centre is slightly different to my example, if you ever want to move it on.

KR,

Pete
