Indian Army ( Auxiliary Force ) - Chota Nagpur (CN) Regiment Officers Plated Cap Badge - Double Blades, pre 1947

An attractive officer's cap badge in very good condition with sharp detail, and original four tabs to the reverse (most probably for wear on a slouch hat). Circa 4cm tall and 3cm wide. Scarce in this condition. See also an officer's button to this regiment listed elsewhere on the site (item 54705). Worn circa 1917 - 1947.

They were Light Horse between 1910 to 1917 and a very small unit then numbering only 266 Europeans, 132 Anglo Indians and 5 Parsees.
