MAGNIFY

Their full title from 1901-14 was the 3rd County of London (Sharpshooters) Imperial Yeomanry. This was the collar badge until 1961, when it amalgamated with the Kent Yeomanry and a different badge came into being. They were mounted troops from 1914-18, but also served as dismounted infantry at Gallipoli, and in WW2 as a light tank regiment.

This badge appears to be in unhallmarked die-struck silver. Its condition is clean and sharp, with no apparent damage, just a little wear from service use.
