Default 12th Nelson

I'm storm stayed at home today as we are experiencing our first blizzard of the year. The first day of snow is always a bleak day and we are getting it in spades. However the mailman made it through and I received this badge (green crud and all). I'm just wondering if it is indeed a cap as it seems alittle small... 32mm h 36mm wide... thanks Jim

Hi Jim,
The badge is indeed a hat badge. Collars measure approx. 28mmx26mm.
Cheers, Tinto

Am glad it's at least a cap as I paid alittle to much for this one I'm afraid... thought it was 6-108 12th nelson and marlbourgh and I jumped all over it... find out it's a 6-104 12th nelson only... my mistake... old eyes and bifocals.. the seller would be happy as he did O.K. on this one and I guess it didn't really hurt all that much.. at least it's a legit cap badge ( I keep telling myself)
