The brass badges consisting of the Royal coat of arms within a garter bearing the motto, 'Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense' (Shame on him who thinks evil of it), surmounted by a crown and lion crest; with lion and unicorn supporters above a scroll bearing the motto, 'Dieu et Mon Droit' (God and My Right), above an artillery piece with a scroll bearing the motto 'Ubique' (Everywhere). Below is another scroll that reads 'Quo Fas et Gloria Ducunt' (Wherever Right and Glory Lead). The Royal Artillery has been in existence since 1716 and has participated in almost every action that the British Army has participated in since then. In 1832 William IV granted the Royal Artillery the use of the motto 'Ubique', to acknowledge its extensive service. The design of the crown was changed in 1902 with the accession of Edward VII to the throne. Both are in very good order with pins to the rear. The price for the pair includes UK delivery. 22434:14.
