Hi Gary

Yes, definitely an OSD cap badge, West Riding Regt. It looks OK to me, you can find them (and most regts) much more "brassy" than that!

Gary,

The base metal will be cast brass/gilding metal which has then been chemically treated to produce the bronze finish, definitely a genuine Duke's OSD cap badge.

Cheers,

Marcus
