Title 79th Highlanders officer's plaid brooch
Nationality Scottish
Period mid-19th century
Sold

These were worn by officers, pipers and senior NCOs, the metal for the latter two being mostly nickel silver, while those for officers were either in fine quality silver plate or solid silver. This is of cast silver construction with an iron pin to the reverse. There are no hall marks, but this is typical of a mid-19th century example.

I am just dropping your company a line to say thank you for the 2nd WW Iron Cross, that my brother has purchased off your site Thursday evening. We received it 1st class today and it is in excellent condition. Many thanks again.
