Nothing like the 77th I have one on my site and I believe Garry Shotton sold one similar. I have a silvered one like DonFs in the unknown section I was thinking the Same as DonF as it looks like the one in post 2.

In post #2 it shows the Officers Cap badge...... that shape was unique to the RWY Officers until all ranks wore it post WW2.

This is when the RWY ORs started to wear the Officer pattern in the 1950s...

* You can see the stress fracture flaw in the female die on the face of the badge if you look at the top feathers...... also seen in the AA.

I would say its a WELSH/WELCH Regiment cap badge with the bottom scroll broken off.

Thanks for the reply.
I've inspected the badge and there doesn't appear to have had a scroll or anything attached to it?

From the photos O'd agree with the suggestion that it has, the type which would be attached with tabs to the bottom of the scrolls perhaps.
There are "marks", small blemishes at those locations.
Could've been caused by minor damage to badge or die but those areas need close examination.

I will take a closer photo of the areas where the tabs could have been on the ich dien scrolls, and see where we go from there.
Thanks for replys by the way.

Here are some close ups of the ich dien scrolls, both feel smooth enough.
