Default Grenade Badge For ID.
Trying to positively ID this brass grenade badge. Its 45mm x 37mm. I thought Canadian, but been told it might be British. Will be moving it on, as it doesn't fit into my collecting interests.
Thanks.

One of the variations of the Grenadier Guards grenade badges (14 flames, 15 flames, 17 flames etc although I haven't seen such a badge with that neck reinforcement before, and I have seen illustrations of it labelled as a Canadian badge.

The construction with the reinforcement is not typical of Canadian grenadier regiments. (CGG, Winnipeg Gren, etc.)
