Post no. 7 in the thread that I linked has this comment from a former WOI who served in the 4th/7th RDG and the RDG:

"These "collar badges" (approx 20mm) were standard wear on the collar of Service Dress and No 1 Dress for Officers (and Warrant Officer Class 1) of the 4th/7th Royal Dragoon Guards right up to 1992 when the Regiment amalgamated with the 5th Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards to form The Royal Dragoon Guards".

Billy's badge looks to be of older manufacture than the one I show?
