hi Tim and all, I have noticed that the wording can sometimes be found on two or three scrolls, is the two scroll type an earlier type.

I am looking for an example to cover the dates 1964 to the present day, ie one worn by The Royal Anglian Regt.

You would need both types to cover the period from 1964 to date.

The ‘two scroll’ type is the 1953 pattern and the ‘three scroll’ pattern was introduced in 1978.
