Default Peshawar Mountain Battery shoulder title

Hi All,
I have this XXIII/MTN shoulder title which I think was worn by 23rd Peshawar Mountain Battery (Frontier Force) 1903-1947.
I note that blackpowder44 has a similar one in his collection, 23/MTN:

Can anyone explain the difference and date the XXIII/MTN?

Thanks,
John

I don't have references on RA pagri badges but according to this it's "HQ, 23rd Mountain Brigade Royal Artillery pagri badge, India circa 1927-38."

Thanks for that reference, Leigh. A pagri badge rather then a shoulder title.
Cheers, John
