WW1 Canada - 183rd (Manitoba Beavers) Infantry Battalion CEF Officer's Full Dress Collar Badge

Gilt and silver plate with original pin fitting. Maker marked Dingwalls, Winnepeg to reverse. Circa 3.9cms tall. I have seen the same pattern by this maker in bronze with blades, but I believe this to a collar badge rather than a sweetheart. It has no obvious marks of having been fitted with anything other than the pin fitting. Happy to be corrected.
