This doesn't seem to be the normal cap badge for the NF.
Anyone got any ideas?

Alan is absolutely right. Is it silver on gilt, by any chance ? If so, it will be an officers' pattern shoulder title. I seem to detect from the photograph (although blurred) that it consists of 2 metals. Regards. David

cstudent,
I assume that yours looks very much like this one - yours is an earlier version of this one. The one I have has the scroll with Royal (i.e. its a later version).


Rgds, David
