A die struck brass metal example with two dark toned soldered lug fastenings. Some dulling to finish from age and service wear. An original example as worn 1861 - 1869.

(Please note the shape of the tail of the numeral '4' in the final photo. It is half moon in shape and is different to the example in K&K Vol 1 Fig 146).

A 'yellow' brass pre-territorial glengarry badge with two original brass loops to the reverse. The number "52" to the centre of a bugle horn with strings. See my item 54465, which contrasts an original item similar to this one with a frequently encountered reproduction.
