Mid Victorian Royal Midlothian Light Yeomanry Cavalry Officers Silver Plated Pouch Badge

A gorgeously made cast pouch badge in silver plate (unmarked) with three screw posts (possibly shortened) and two original retaining nuts /discs to the reverse. Otherwise no damage or repairs. A lovely piece and rare.

The Royal Edinburgh Volunteer Light Dragoons and the Midlothian Yeomanry were united in one regiment of six troops in 1800. In 1837 all the Scottish Yeomanry Corps (except for the Ayrshire and Lancashire Regiments) were disbanded. The Royal Midlothian Y.C. was re-raised in 1843 and eventually ceased to exist in 1871.
