Hi BC,
Always open to trades As previously mentioned I'm on the lookout for any SA numerals, so still looking for - 22 24 76 79 80 81 82 Any of mine that aren't SA could be trades, there are also two 78s so one could also be available. Cheers, Dan |

Is this Australian and, if so, can anyone tell me more about it? I bought it several years ago hoping it may be an 18th (Royal Irish) Regiment Kilmarnock forage cap badge. I know little to nothing of these numerals and have long thought that it might, in fact, be Australian.
thanks in advance for any help. John |

Hi John,
As you no doubt can see for yourself your badge isn't similar to those shown throughout this thread. I've always had my doubts of titles without a top bar being Aussie (this includes the typical shoulder titles worn by the AIF), also both numbers aren't in the typical style either. I know the Canadians made a lot of their titles without a top bar, but I wouldn't know if it's Canadian. Others may be able to shed more light. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Dan |

SA shoulder titles pic from a document by Robert Grey - I've also got a spare AR title for trade.

Hi Geoff,
No message as yet, this morning I changed my email address on my profile which I've only verified since you messaged me so am not sure if that would have anything to do with the delay The 79 is one I'm interested in. With my collecting I've pretty much restricted myself to 1st AIF and CMF (1912-18 period). I believe I have that FA badge (#33), I'll have to dig it out. I'll reply to your PM once it arrives ..... soon hopefully Cheers, Dan |
