Indian Army - 19th Hyderabad Regiment Brass Shoulder Title

A good scarce British made brass shoulder title. Two original hex type lugs to the reverse with original orange felt backing. I am unclear as to which battalion the backing represented but the Regiment had been formed from six others with the re-organisation of the Indian Army in 1922 so perhaps its has some relevance. In very good condition with cotter pin.
