Hi Bess. Thanks for that. I dug mine out and they are indeed, gold on the back. I'll mark them probably/possibly PWV and set about finding a more recent pair like yours for RWY.

I have the 3 types (1 piece, 2 piece , 2 piece brass lugs) with my PWV Lancs and a 2 piece with my Wiltshire Yeomanry. Acceptable so far???? The reference to Wessex Yeomanry has thrown me though. I'm presuming from the comments they have continued to wear the old a/a Wiltshire collars and not something made in a similar metal to the cap? Mark |

For the Lancs PWV or early Wilts Yeo perhaps, is my thinking.

Thanks. I guess generic prince of Wales feathers badges of all types/periods can be difficult to assign 100%.

Indeed Jerry - the KRH ones however are distinctly different, if not the same 'generic' design and size.

Thanks Tim & Bess, that really is quite different in the detailing of the feathers.

I picked up a not quite matching pair (it is only a slight difference in angle of the scrolls & one is gold behind rather than silver on the other) of a different pattern Prince of Wales collars and wondered what they are, potentially to different units.

They appear to be from a different die Jerry.
One could have been produced recently so KRH ,the other prior to 1992 so Royal Hussars. They could be different makers from a similar time period. Very hard to tell without a makers mark. |

The small PWV collars were in later years worn by the Prince Of Wales Division Band. Just a normal anodised lug to the rear .
