... yes Micha, (I think) this is a coat-shoulderboard from the Kgl. Bayer. 3. Feldartillerie-Regt. Prinz Leopold.

Normaly they wear red shoulderboards with yellow number, but for a short periode of time (around 1881-1997)

they had this kind of shoulderboards (blue with red Paspilierung and yellow number). So this are rare one's.

Good catch - I allready see them in Flonheim! Best regards,

Jens

Micha,

Your 10.bayr.FAR has Prussian one year volunteer cord? I think this is more likely a one year volunteer from the 10th Hannoveran Pioneer Battalion.

And Jens is correct about this being a pattern of shoulder strap for the old blue/black overcoat. Depending on when the cypher for the 3.b.IR was authorized, it might also be from that regiment.

Chip,

from Tonys page-I thought the Hannoversches Pionier-Batl. Nr.10 has also a cypher on the shoulderboard?

Micha,

Those are errors. There was no Chiffre worn by any pioneer battalion. The only special devices would have been the crossed pick and shovel on the Saxon pioneer boards. All (non-Saxon) Bunter Rock pioneer boards had yellow numbers on red boards.
