15THPACAV #1 Posted May 7, 2017 I managed to acquire this other ranks review order czapka for the 9th ( Queen's Royal ) Lancers on Ebay. It has a Victorian plate, so it is pre-1902 issue. Bob S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QSAMIKE #2 Posted May 8, 2017 Yes it looks like a good Victorian badge and czapka........ You really have to be careful as there is a company in a country on the sub-continent that is reproducing these. even down to the wear and tear...... But saying that this one looks good with the proper signs of age...... Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's been on there a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
