    Victorian British Army NCO insignia

    Some of my favorite cloth bits are the early Army NCO bullion insignia. I thought I'd like to share four new pieces I aquired from an american patch auction.
    Thanks for looking,
    Garth

          Garth,

          Stunning pieces and in fabulous condition as well. Seldom have I seen such well preserved Victorian embroidered badges! Can you enlighten us as to their specific significance? Love to hear more about them.

          Nice finds, hope you did well price-wise too...US badge auction sounds promising that you did!

          Cheers,

          Adam

            Loving these Garth, especially the cavalry NCO badges...........super stuff.

            Did the auctioneer actually know what he had?

              Truly fantastic Garth!

              I just love that recruiting sergeant. I have the flags but that plate is really impressive. I know It's much later but here is one of my favourites. Hope you like it.

              Yours, Guy.

                Thanks for the comments everyone. Guy that RSM of yours is very nice . The total for all four pieces in the auction was the equivelent of 150 quid . Sorry I didn't do an ID when I posted these but it was late. Better late than never:

                #1 Grenadier Guards, Victoria
                #2 I think this is West India Regt., Victoria
                #3 Grenadier Guards, Elizabeth
                #4 Victorian Recruiting Segt.

                Here is a picture of a few more of my bullion bits.
