SNCO's glengarry badge in GM/SP & silver.
Silver plated back star has toned to a pleasing colour, overlay shows no sign of any gilt. St. Andrew is silver. Sgts and ORs case is full up now so having to double stack them. |

Gilt brass watch fob with suspension ring, mounted with a silver St. Andrew. Engraved verso with unknown initials dated Feb 19th 1915. This is not a repurposed overlay removed from a badge rather a jeweler made piece.

As an aside, I am of the opinion that there is no such thing as a SNO or officer badge in this case and others such as the Gordons; they being the same for both rank ranges regardless of quality. I hold it to be myth with no basis in fact, likely invented by collectors or some other erroneous source that most still fall prey to. CB

All I can say is that I am flabbergasted! Absolutely superb collection. I see things in there that I have never seen before and will likely never see again.
