The vendor of the badge is a respected dealer out in the maritimes. He has added dimensions to the listing (perhaps one of the Forum members queried him...). The dimensions appear to be consistent with the cap badge size, but the cap and collars are nearly the same size. Still a tough call.

I know I am late to the party on this one, but I have an officers example with E-W lugs. I have personally never seen an OR badge, so I cannot comment on this pinned version.

Cheers,

Ancient thread, I know, but for what it's worth my Vets badge has the same unusual vertical pin as the one pictured above.

The thinking on these types of fasteners is that they were for the summer helmets.
