Default RLC beret badge
Good afternoon,

I have found this bullion beret badge with a purple crown. Do you know this model ?

Its a private purchase WO1/Officers Beret Badge of which there are many variations, but I have not seen one with a purple crown before.. it should be red

It's perhaps a deep crimson rather than purple?

Clearly it's been through the wash, just faded, probably from soap.
