More Manitoba Dragoons
I've had hese two badges for quite some time. I assume they are late issue (last issue?) to the Regiment.
One has an antiqued brass look, the other a pewter finish. Both are heavy, nicely detailed, & well made. And yes, you can still see where the "A" was erased to correct the spelling mistake in Manitoba. I doubt they're rare or anything, but thought I'd share - I've never bumped into any others similar.

Nice Doug, I've never seen that type of catch before, even on civilian stuff. I would think it's unique to a specific maker (civilian?) making them for the regiment. So you are thinking they are late issue, are they not still around?
