Title London Rifle Brigade other ranks shako plate
Nationality British
Period c 1902-14
Sold

This is the last pattern plate, still worn on ceremonial parades by the band. It is a die-struck piece, constructed of two parts. The City of London arms are displayed beneath 'Ich Dien', the Prince of Wales's motto. The regiment was founded in 1859 and served with great distinction in all the 20th century's wars.

This particular plate retains virtually all its original black paint finish, with just a little age wear to the highlights.
