Cheers Paul.
It's definitely a metal version, note also the "join" down the middle of the hackle fitting.

Yes, quite a few of the Bde badges continued in use with other units, such as Wessex Bde, Yorkshire Bde, Lowland & Highland.
(Pity to waste all that time & expense designing & making the things by throwing them all away when the Bdes ceased to exist?)

Strangely though although the new Mercian Regt badge is similar the sizes are different.

The Lowland and Highland badges were worn by the respective bands before their demise as well as the volunteers.

Photos of it appear in an old thread on this forum, from 2010.
