Original item
The WW1 York and Lancaster Regiment Economy Brass Cap Badge is a scarce variant of the regiment’s standard insignia, struck entirely in brass rather than the traditional bi-metal design. Introduced by the British Army starting in late 1915 to conserve strategically important metals (like white metal/nickel) and speed up production during wartime pressure.
