Royal Artillery Large Pattern Brass Pouch Badge

Worn by all ranks circa 1871 - 1890 on the undress pouch and by officers on the binocular case 1890 - 1902, circa 8.5 cms long. In very good condition with three screw posts and the original nut fastenings. Separately mounted wheel to give a 3D effect but this is fixed and does not turn.

The gun is the 9 pounder rifled muzzle loader as issued to the Horse and Field Artillery in 1871 (note the metal rivets on the carriage - earlier pattens were based on the wooden gun carriage Waterloo pattern 9 pounder Field Gun). A lovely item in complete condition.
