My guess being military it is Gold Plated not Pure.

Most cool.  You cleaned it up very good.

My Guess is that it is Silver under the gold.

Historically speaking only Officers had gold Plating or Guild.  Enlisted was base metals and some shine.

LOL! lucky to have more then silk thread embroidered  Emblems.

Thanks for the comments guys,Johnnn i was looking it up on google images and 1 photo had that information on it. After further looking into it turns out that 4 country's including Canada uses the same badge,so mine would be the Australian artillery unit seeing it was found in Australia..

Raoul, I think I'd phrase that as "probably" Australian.  Don't forget a little thing called WWII played havoc with the normal distribution of B.E. and Commonwealth troop distributions.  (and then you have the standard peace-time personnel exchanges for liason, familiarization, etc.)
