Title Derbyshire Yeomanry, 1940 pattern
Nationality British
Period c 1940-1957
Price £15.00

The Derbyshire Yeomanry was part of the Royal Armoured Corps in 1939 (Kipling & King 2342). This die-struck white metal example was introduced in 1940, replacing an earlier one in gilding metal.


The slider at the reverse has been broken, but otherwise the badge is in excellent condition, virtually as struck.

testimonials

Hanger arrived safe and sound 11.30ish today. Very pleased, it's as expected. Your excellent pics make all the difference in terms of confident buying over the net. As a matter of interest, the frog, which as you said is very a/f, is, as you thought, 'spot on'. On closer inspection it is a mk.1 Naval Frog, designated 'for cutlasses'. Date seems around 1860ish give or take.

By the way, I think your site is very user friendly. Seems to work much better than many and up to date, a rarity!!!

?20 postage is fine, can't wait for the sword to arrive. The last sword I purchased from you was in really nice condition.
