WW2 Buffs (East Kent Regiment) White Metal (Plated Brass) Cap Badge

A white metal plated original brass / gilding metal cap badge with an original slider (and no signs of ever having been lugged). The plate to the front is wearing through showing the gilding metal below. It also has no signs of plating to the reverse, so most probably NOT one of the first batch of badges which were plated by the REME units in the field for the 7th Battalion The Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment) - re-designated as the 141st (7th Battalion, The Buffs) Royal Armoured Corps, in October 1941.

Anyway, a nice original badge, which could be an oddity, or 141st RAC (later issue), or regimental police. Finally, this is not the Birmingham Mint white metal version.
