Highland Light Infantry (HLI) Other Ranks White Metal Glengarry Cap Badge - Long Scroll Pattern
A die struck cap badge, not properly cut out on bottom section of the cross arms. Two original D style loops to the reverse.

The Royal Scots Other Ranks Bi-Metal Pagri Badge - Slider
A scarce badge, with original slider, not as long as that encountered on pre 1906 examples, so probably WW1 vintage.
