Royal Irish Fusiliers (Princess Victoria's) Officers Collar Badge converted to pin fitting

An officer's collar badge with eagle facing right mounted on the grenade. Loops removed and replaced with pin fasting. Possibly for wear of the forage cap. Does not look like a 'sweetheart' conversion. Gilt dulled and silver plate a bit worn.

Churchill No 1793 refers (but coronet absent).
