Restrike of the Royal Munster Fusiliers glengarry badge, worn between 1881 and 1922. This iconic design features the coat of arms of Munster within a decorative wreath, on a flaming grenade, typical of the Fusilier regiment’s Glengarry badge designs.
The restrike closely follows the proportions and detailing of original late-Victorian and early 20th-century examples, including the central coat of arms of Munster, wreath leaves, and overall badge profile. Produced in gilding metal/brass and fitted with traditional-style lugs on the reverse, it makes an excellent display, reference, or replacement badge.
