Default Unknown bullion embroidered patch.

This may not be military related. A nice looking sign, measures 48 mm x 52 mm.

Anyone have any thoughts as to what this might be?
Thanks
Jack

Hi Jack
Don’t know what it is but looks like a Seaforth Highlanders stags head to me ? We’re they in Kiel at any point, others may help hopefully

That form of stags head is common on Imperial and later German insignia as well, particularly to do with hunting and shooting, not just military.
