Default Trophy Belt Canadian badges

Hi, just had this arrive and contains some Canadian amongst others, personally I know next to nothing on Canadian so wish to pick your brains if I might?
A few questions I would like to know is anything on these badges regards common or scarce? (I think they will be collars).
What price roughly for each (just to get a feel for what I paid!) I love Trophy belts and this one is intact, bit Rough (Used) but not stripped!
Many thanks Billy

Default Trophy Belt Canadian badges

Billy,
I would love to see the whole badge collection, I am a bit of a novice with Canadian badges, but from what I can see they look good.

They are all collars and are all good. The 219th is the most difficult to find. The 165th was an Acadian battalion, recruited primarily in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. The 170th is relatively common.

Hi J.T. No indication of ever having a Slider behind the Queens, but general wear and tear damage to fabric, have taken rear shots of belt, the one with Threaded portions the top one is for the queens!

The 203rd badge I posted into the Australian section, Rob kindly pointed out this was in fact Canadian! thanks Rob.

This would place the Belt up at Ypres? and then you sort of think Pacchendaele, with the amount of Canadian badges, could the badges on the belt - British and Canadian help with a time frame?

Am glad I posted the belt as has generated quite a bit of interest! anyone wanting other picture’s just shout, All the best Billy
