Item History
- Regiment Origins: The 10th Royal Hussars was a celebrated cavalry regiment of the British Army originally raised in 1715.
- Symbol Meaning: The three feathers and the German motto ICH DIEN (I Serve) are the traditional heraldic symbols of the Prince of Wales, honoring the regiment’s special royal title.
- Service Era: This specific design variant was worn by British troops through the World War II era, during which the regiment converted to an armored unit and fought bravely in North Africa, Italy, and Northwest Europe.
- Rarity Factor: Collectors actively seek out premium bi-metal cavalry badges bearing verified J.R. Gaunt maker marks on the slider, making this an exceptional addition to a militaria collection.
