== Summary ==
The small collar badges come up in all sorts of variations of home crafted souvenirs and memorabilia. Their smaller size make them better suited for the purpose than the full size ones (plus with each soldier having a pair there were twice as many). The Victorian type (11 battle honours) type do appear, but more commonly used are the later type (13 honours) on the arms of the Maltese cross.
You do see them on picture frames, wooden and metal boxes etc., but by far the most common use is when they have the rear lugs replaced by a pin fastening attached to the back to make a brooch.
