Default Unknown Badge ??

Hello everyone.
i wasnt quite sure where to post this.
This was found in NZ by a friend
Im guessing Victorian Hat/helmet plate/badge
I think it has lost its center piece. (this is a guess of course)
Made of pewter
Any help identifying it would be much appreciated.

Here's a detail at low light angle 4th picture. The position of the fixing remains on the back are marked with yellow dots in case I have the orientation wrong

Hi,

Don't think that it is a helmet or cap badge. Looks more like a decoration of some sort.
