Hi, I have recently got my hands on this badge. I am very chuffed with it, but would like to know if anybody can give me any history on this badge. Regards Andrew

Hi Andrew
nice find.
I know nothing, but that must be an old badge. I would expect, judging from the style, 1850's or there-abouts?
Cheers,
Alex
