PREM Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Is this a badge of Hungarian Homeland (Honved) from hat or cap? Size about 8 cm height. Is it from the period of 1914-18? Regards P.
Farkas Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Hi Prem just found this matches... I would presume this is your plate in wear. It doesn't mention size in my book and 8cm is smaller,slightly, than a different shako plate I have. However, shako varied in height. I think with the help of any Gent who might know the height/size of this design ( ? ) it should be simple to confirm or disprove. Nice piece either way tony
