Badge

[cazack]

Hello

I am new to badge collecting and would like to know if anyone could help me with this badge and what regiment it is or attached to

regards and thanks in advance

Please post a photo of the rear, its always required when assessing badges as we can tell more about it than the front view.

regards

Also the length & height of the badge would be helpful.

please find the reverse

It is not a genuine badge but a modern copy.

It purports to be some sort of Victorian Rifle Regiment shako badge from the 1860's but I have never seen a real one with a VR cypher in the centre.

I'm afraid that I would be in the same camp as Simon! I think that the badge is a reproduction based on the photos.

Regards,

Dave

thanks for your help as was not sure it was genuine or not. I have been since informed it "belongs" to the Highlands Light Infantry Regiment around the 1860's
