belt plate

[blueman]

is it scots guards ?

A lovely ceremonial belt - although the gilt brocade on the belt itself has worn. With the Crown - possibly Edward 7th. or,

more likely George 5th.

I enclose a copy from the Dictionary of Latin Mottoes showing the people and Units that used this Motto. Some very

impressive ones amongst them and some follow up work will be required to identify the correct Unit. I suspect military and

several famous regiments are listed. Hope this helps. Mervyn

Hi blueman.

My guess is Royal Scots. The thistle and sprig surround were typically used by this regiment. Regards Jeff

Scots guards I think.
