Title 48th Cavalry cap badge
Nationality British Empire
Period c 1939-43
Sold

This rare cap badge, apparently made of bazaar cast white brass (or native silver?), but possibly with a silver plate finish now somewhat worn, was carried in the early years of WW2 until the unit was disbanded in 1943. The ancestor of this unit was the Central India Horse.

The condition is excellent for its age.

Picked up the dirk this morning and actually waited until I got back home before unwrapping the package. It really exceeded my expectations...whilst the photos were good, to see and feel it in three dimensions was very exciting. A beatutful piece Chris, and worth the wait.
