Stephan That proves that the same base die was used to make badges for other Regiments. So the 10th's applied scroll was simply changed to another Regiments scroll...... thats why we see a faint mirrored image of the "10th Hussars" on some of earlier BiM badges

I guess this is what makes collecting British Commonwealth, and British in particular, insignia, so interesting and varied, but at the same time so challenging. Uniform does definitely not mean uniformity!!

I notice with these Griff, that the crowns are riveted on but I could not tell how the scrolls are done?
Can you please enlighten me?

The scrolls are part of the main body..... the coronet is separate....
