a few more unknown badges
hi all
these aren’t mine and I’m asking for a friend. going through the unknown box and picked this lot out to see if we could ID them. any help appreciated the lion HP looks to be Iranian but what exactly? the BNP could be Burma Native Police? no idea what the MPW is or what the sphinx is? cheers BC |

The first one is Iranian, I believe.
Edit - but you've already said that... The Crown BNP badge- to do with gun proofing? Birminngham Nitro Proof? Last edited by leigh kitchen; 05-11-23 at 11:45 AM. |

There was a Bengali Native Police in the British India days.

Thanks mate
Yes very similar. The description says it’s solid back. The one I showed is die struck with what looks like 2 or 3 fittings being removed. Very interesting. Cheers BC Quote:
