Hi Didier

Probably an early badge from James Gillespie's High School, Edinburgh:

All the best

SORRY, POSTED IN WRONG THREADIt has never been quite clear to me what badge the Victorian Rangers wore before Federation in 1901. I have presumed they wore universal pattern Victorian badges.
Have attached a scan of another pattern brass title which seems to be post 1903, and I think I have seen other numbers as well.
Were the two patterns of hat and collar badges (as shown in the Denis' scans) worn concurrently after 1903 by the 1st and the 2nd?
