Between them Linaker+Dine and Seaman were able to identify six named badges. Namely Gardiner,Godwin,Briggs,Wild,Lee,and Harvey.

Forum members have now added three new names to this list. Bramley,Hunter and Lackie. I think that's quite an achievement!!!!

Anybody else have an unknown badge????

I hope here that I won’t be (as the expression goes) ‘stating the bleedin’ obvious’, but the significance of the engraved date common to these badges would of course be the occasion of Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee.

Default 6th Inniskilling arm badge

Tony

Thanks for pointing out the photo of the Inniskilling NCO wearing his arm badge.

However I think this is the standard 6th Inniskilling arm badge and not the 1887 version.

The 1887 Jubiliee arm badge is wider than the standard issue.

It's still a very interesting photo.

These badges are absolute quality. The craftsmanship in making them is outstanding, just a shame there not being worn nowadays.

Default Inniskilling Dragoons 1887

Hi All

Three known badges have changed hands in the last year

I believe that the Hollis badge would be No 10.

However we don't actually know that it still exists as it hasn't been seen since 1974.

Anybody know who owns it?

Bob

Smile Inniskilling 1887 Arm Badge

Hi Alex

Thanks for the post.

Sgt Robinson's badge is another addition to the list.

At 2525R (£142) that has to be the bargain of the year

Even with the flag missing it's still a great buy.

Bob

Hello Guys

Thanks to every one who has contributed and shown pictures of these super rare badges, this is the Forum at its finest. As one who owns a Hallmarked 17th Lancers Arm Motto I know how rare these things are.

Well gone guys,

regards

Phil.
