Officers York and Lancaster

[colinboz]

Hi Gents,

Could you please advise if this WM York and Lancaster cap badge on lugs is ok and an officers badge, central rose has small traces of red enamel and has a good strike.

Thanks,

Colin.

It seems to be a white metal but has a silver look about it but hard to tell because of the dark pictures.

It looks to me like a volunteer battalion badge and the rear of the rose/coronet has the 'floating' appearance common to early Y&L badges.

Looks to be a good officer quality badge to a volunteer/territorial battalion of the Young and Lovely. It is silver plate (lugs plated) with a gilt and enamel "cabbage".
