Title 53rd Foot glengarry badge, OR's (Fox's re-strike)
Nationality British
Period c 1889-1902
Price £30.00

The original badges were in service 1874-1881. Mr Fox's re-strikes were produced from original dies c 1889-1902 to satisfy the demand of collectors at that time, and were quite faithful to the originals, except for the placing of the lugs at the middle, rather than North/South as on the originals.

The price of this nice, sharp example reflects this difference. It is 6.5cm tall, struck in yellow brass.
