Many years ago I bought a badly scratched example at the old Bolton, Silverwell Street Fair for £1 and sold it a week or so later for £25 on the old Reg Harvey List.
P.B.

Thats a shocking price..... just shows that dealers will put a price on them...... and the public auction site when started from £0 finishes on what they are really worth.
I like Paul..... but I believe he is being a little too ambitious with that price. I know he sold a pair 3 or 4 years ago for less than that. If that was a single silver and gilt Officers..... yes, then I would expect that price.

Griff,
I suppose it is far easier to reduce a price rather than increase it and impossible once an item has been sold. Peter

I do pay a fair bit for what I'm after these days, but I would balk at that. Thank goodness I already have one.

I have recently obtained a short history of 103 ( Lancashire Artillery Volunteers ) Regiment Royal artillery Volunteers which has an interesting paragraph showing the relationship of the Flint and Denbigh Yeomanry to the current unit.
This is attached and I hope is legible. On a visit to the HQ of 103 Lacncashire Artillery Volunteers a couple of years ago I noticed a large hand written " family tree " of the unit and noticed a reference to the Flint and Denbigh Yeomanry which I did not, at the time, understand. I now, I think, understand the connection between the two units. P.B.

Griff,
About 10 years ago an ex R.A., T.A. officer in Chester was selling off all his uniforms prior to moving down south to live nearer his daughter. There was his service dress, blue patrols and mess kit. The blue patrols had shoulder chains and he told me that he had previously served with a unit in Liverpool which had originated in the Lancashire Hussars, but more recently he had served with the Flint and Denbigh Yeomanry R.A., the F and D collar badges that he said were silver and gilt had been removed from the patrol jacket and had already been sent with other items to his new house so I never even had the opportunity to look at them. I cannot remember the officers name but with hindsight I now wonder if he had been a member of the Prestatyn based B Troop but I will never know now. Peter

Finally managed to pick up a bi-metal Flint and Denbigh Yeomanry example, shown below with the its predecessor's badges. The C & D example with the slider has the 12.5mm Gaunt London with no dot mark.
