Default Norfolk Yeomanry Pagri Battalion Patch

Can anybody who owns a Norfolk Yeomanry Pagri Patch please post a picture of it front and back? Thanks for taking the trouble.

You are probably well aware of this example in the Museum at Muckleburgh Collection at Weybourne.
Apologies for poor photography of the item under glass.

An unusual flash, and unusual in that they were worn in pairs as well.

Just to clarify, I have two, but that doesn’t mean both worn at the same time

Does the caption in the photo shown in post no. 2 mean that a single flash was worn on the helmet albeit on left or right side or does it mean that they were worn on both sides at the same time?
