Hello! I hope this is the proper forum for this question, and my apologies if it's not.
I have come into possession of what appears to be a vintage Gordon Highlanders sporran, but I'd like confirmation as well as any other information I can find about it. Here is a link to an imgur photo album of the sporran: http://imgur.com/a/33Aj1.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer!

Hi Bill

On using Google Images, this auction website (from 2014) believes that badge to belong to the Gordon Highlanders c1888 to 1908.

The Gordon Highlanders Museum website describes it as a "Traditional Regimental shield worn on the formal dress (hair) sporran"
