Default Original Collar...

The molecules of brass may be original.... but the collar is not one that was originally made under contract for the DND.

I have seen some very strange Rocky Mountain Rangers collar badges over the years. Cast white metal with screw posts for example.
This may very well have been worn.

Hi Phil, I have those white metal / cast aluminum ones as well, but I have never seen a sand cast brass with these crude lugs. Until there is some proof that these were worn, they are suspect.
