21 st London cap or collar?

[RMR]

Just got this off a better ebay seller where it was described as a cap badge however I was surprised at the size just over 1 1/2 inches high with what seem to me to be longer than usual lugs,so is it a cap or collar? Thanks Roger

Hello Roger,

The cap badge to the 21st is one of the smaller London badges, at about 1 3/4 inches (43mm approx). You may wish to re-measure your badge to confirm, as officers did wear collars slightly smaller than the O/Rs' cap badge.

O/Rs did not wear collars.

Regards,
