British Army East Lancashire Regiment Victorian Cap Badge - Repaired

an interesting badge. an original pre 1902 pattern bimetallic British Army cap badge that has had its lug fittings removed and replaced with a slider fitting. Its been done a long time. possibly WW1 as soldiers very often utilised archaic badges unofficially for sentimental reasons.the white metal i think has been subdued with a dark coating.
