Have seen similar shape and loops on Belgian para badges.

I had thought Belgian or Indian? But what date?

Thank you for looking, Keith

I have one just like it which was identified as Belgian. It also comes in silver.
Unsure of date, though.

Just checked my catalogue. It's Belgian Paracommando, Junior rank; SNCO is in white metal.

Thank you Airtrooper and David.

It is certainly an attractive badge.

So it is Post War?
