BRITISH SOUTH AFRICA POLICE MESS DRESS GILT COLLAR.
E-mail
As you can see this is the last of these collars; in this case left facing, with the crown removed. "Quartermaster's Comment":- A very attractive badge, Arniel suggests that the crown came off in around 1970, whereas Colin Owen says that it was dropped earlier in 1965/6. Whatever, a nice Mess Dress Collar.
