Default St George's English Rifles Colour Sergeants arm patch

while looking for something else i found this in a box of cloth/bullion items
came with a tag reading, removed from the uniform of a St George's English Rifles Colour Sergeant.

Yes, I know nothing of the unit but I like the badge, it's understated for a bullion.

Again, I like the badge (I have a soft spot for Geordie & the dragon badges).
I have a collar badge, similar to the central design.

Lovely badge and differs from UK Rifle Regiments Colour Segeants badges being the regular Infantry pattern but on grey/khaki.

This is what it would look like here, apart from backing colour of course (see photo)

regards
