Hi guys,
I have a few old badges and others tucked away in old tins and I have a couple that are curious.
This is a North Auckland 15th Regiment hat badge from WW1.
They served at Gallipoli as part of the Auckland Battalion. Then went onto Europe after.
What interests me, and I never noticed it before is it's colour. I've never polished it in 35 years and it has a marker on the reverse.
J.R.Gaunt - London.
I see they were suppliers of cap badges in WW1. They were also jewelers.
I've put another cap badge in for comparison.
I would like to think it's been dipped in gold, but it's probably not.
What do you guys think?
Cheers,
Danger
