According to Uniforms of the Napoleonic Wars, they were gold with black stripes. I havenīt checked my Ospreys yet to confirm that though. |

I have gold for officers and yellow and black for other ranks. |

Thatīs probably right. I couldnīt decide from the pictures I saw if they were yellow or gold. |

Thanks. Were the stripes along the length or across the width of the cords? |

They were across the width at an angle, kind of like a candy cane. |
