Lancaster collar?
I was at a gunshow yesterday and managed to acquire these 2 badges (plus a few more Canadian ones). They were in the same box but I don't know if they belong together. Is that a Lancaster rose and does it belong with the york and lancaster cap badge.

The rose is part of a shoulder title of the Coldstream Guards, hence the spade lugs.
