      I believe it to be a collar and one of a pair.

        I'm a bit unsure, they both seem too large for collar insigna?

          Collar badges are the same size as the cap badge that has a crown.

              I stand corrected and not for the first time

              But what period? They came with a massive ww1 grouping that I'm in the process of taking pictures of to start a thread.

              Cheers Adam

                Hard to say, as they used them for a very long time. Brass was common up to the 50's when they brought out the aluminium ones. Maybe somebody knows a special detail on them to tell a timeframe. Maybe there is a special country marked, or an extra leaf. I can't tell that. I also have several but also not sure about.
