Default CYPRUS REGT???

I have a bullion badge that is possibly accredited to The CYPRUS REGT.
Can anyone with knowledge of this Regiment confirm if this is or not a bullion badge to this regiment please?
Or is it for some other Cyprus related organization?
I have never seen a bullion badge for them or if one ever existed.
(This is a copy)

Thanks Simon, Yes it is a modern made badge as I said in my post but I am trying to find out if a actual bullion badge did exist for the Cyprus Regt and if this is a copy of it having never seen or heard of one.
