Henri Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Well, my intuition told me that this would be British, but I am not sure! Have this badge already a long time in my collection, but never put real effort in it to indentify it. Does any of you guys recognize it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henri Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Thanks @Davejb! So if I understand correct it is a WW1 period badge, or at least pre-WW2 and was worn by a Brigadier or Colonel on his cap. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 All I could find were the embroided versions. Does any one know about the metal version like I have ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
