Hi Chris

Its mentioned in Parkyn, shoulder belt plates and buttons.

3rd Dragoon Guards

In 1900 the cap button had the design as for the tunic but without the garter and mounted in silver.

But I have never seen one.

Rob.

Thank you Rob for your reply.
Mounted in silver for OR's, strange, I'd have thought it would be brass?

It doesn't say if its Officers or other ranks, but it does sound more like Officers I agree.
