Default Royal Coat Of Arms Collars - QVC

Hi,

Can anyone please identify who wore these blackened/bronzed collars.

As per Forum rules, they will be up for sale.

Many thanks,
Andy

They are the collars of the Royal Reserve Regiments.

Hi,

Can anyone please confirm the size of the Cap badge. I'm wondering if I actually have 2 x Cap badges instead, as they are not an identical pair. One being definitely Black, one being more Bronzed than Black.

Kipling & King 1128 has them as Gilt, Gilding metal or Black-Metal.

Thank you.
Andy

5cm by 5cm for the cap badges. They are much larger than the collars.
