27th Lancers cap badge, 1941–1945 pattern, a restrike example of the wartime regimental badge. The 27th Lancers were a short-lived British cavalry regiment formed during the Second World War, reflecting the expansion and reorganisation of Britain’s cavalry and armoured forces during the conflict.
Raised in 1941, the 27th Lancers served during the Second World War before being disbanded in 1945. The regiment’s brief existence makes its insignia particularly relevant to collectors of Second World War British cavalry badges, wartime regimental insignia and specialist British Army militaria.
This example is specifically identified as a restrike and should be distinguished from an original wartime issue. Restrike badges reproduce the design of the period badge and are collected as later examples of regimental insignia. It is suitable for collectors building a reference collection of 27th Lancers badges, British cavalry cap badges or Second World War military insignia.
