I also have never seen this badge, in any context -
Probably Monmouthshire rather than montgomeryshire from the type of dragon imo, though not a good math for either with another look, no loop in the tail

Statue Soldier Sterling
Jerry B replied to roadrunner's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
it appears to be hallmarked silver made in Britain, for the SAS and broken -
An odd put together item, not real imo
-
seems a very vague collector description for something he didn't know the answer to. he obviously had a great collection
-
in Jon Mill's badges on battledress p681 #3178, unattributed but often associated with 52nd div in Europe after D Day

a shame so many of the pictures are gone (linked to GHV?) the 1918 is visible and a beauty, as is the 1916, the rest are gone

Grenadier Guards Camp Colors
Jerry B replied to Streptile's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
very nice historical items. I have a company colour for the 8th Company Welsh Guards. this might be of interest https://www.britishempire.co.uk/forces/armyunits/britishinfantry/grenadiercolours.htm -
Identify these uniforms?
Jerry B replied to LManz's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
canadian with the peaked cap and an aussie with the slouch hat, bith circa WWI -
stunning tunic, jam pot cuff type?
-
helmet is post WWII bandsmans type for marines etc & the badge looks a bit poorly struck for guards use imo
-
star is Proficiency VF or TF SNCO, see Edwards and Langley p46 1984
-
I would agree from the peak and the chinstrap that it is interwars, hard to be more precise
-
it is post 1970's SAS wings worth about £10-20
