Here are the opposing collar badges for the 23rd Light Horse (Barossa Light Horse).



I consider the collar facing the same way as the hat badge to very common yet the opposing collar is very hard to find!

For some reason they just aren't around very much.

To give you some idea, its probably the commonest of the 1930 to 42 period badges.

I would value it around $180-200 (i wouldn't pay more than that for one any way) but I have seen dealers try and sell for as much as $400-450.
