For the cap badges on the top row they're worth about: £6-7 Essex; £7-8 Leicestershire; £7-8 Warwickshire tops. The mother of pearl Engineers is worth around £7-8 IMO. As for the others they're not really my thing. Cheers, Luke |

The top 3 cap badges were worn from the turn of the century (1898ish) until 1958. As they have sliders they are not the earliest ones (ie not before the first world war) and looking at them, I would say probably 1940s vintage. All 3 regiments continued to wear the same design until 1958 when they changed to brigade badges. The exception is the Leicestershires who were awarded the Royal title post WW2.
The spur badge is a sweetheart badge to the Royal Army Service Corps and would be post 1937. Hope this helps. Alan |

Mixed badge lot etc.
I believe the only badge not identified is the bottom right - It looks like a lapel badge of SSAFA = The Soldiers, Sailors & Air Force Association - a combined services Old Comrades and benevolent association. It might also be an RAF Benevolent Association lapel badge. I may be wrong - just an opinion. Regards. David
