Crossley Mark I

Thanks for the guesses. I started looking at the period armoured cars and the Crossley Mark I is the closest match - the turret shape and the two rear axles match.

Armoured car

Any idea what this might be? It's 38 mm (1.5") long. Got it as a part of a lot that consisted of Tank and MGC British badges.

What is this RTR badge

Hello!
Can anybody educate me about this badge (e.g. time period, hat/collar, rank)?
It's 24 x 30.5 mm (0.94 x 1.2 inches) and has a nice weight to it (it being a sandwich).
thanks

No additional information. Sorry. I referred to my badge (with rising sun and motto) as the 30's design.

Australian

Hello
Both the tank shape/design and the lug type match this Australian badge that I have in my collection. Yours doesn't have a rising sun though. I think this design was short lived in early...

Tank collar badge. US?

Hello. Can you help me identify this one? It's 20mm wide. I suspect it's a US badge because of the screw back fastener but the thread didn't match two definitely US badges in my collection. And also...

Stephen, I love your medal! Too bad someone really tried to turn it into a Gold Medal by polishing all the details from the tank!

Another Armoured sweetheart

Acquired this one recently. It's sterling silver, really thick and has an impressive weight. I think I saw a picture of a similar one but with gem stones and found it to be in a bad taste. This one...

Fear nOught badge

Here's an interesting one with an unusual spelling of "nOught".
Question: What does YKS mean on the back? I suspect Yorkshire.

That 75th anniversary one is nice because it has the tank on it. I must get one! If you know where I can get one, please let me know.

RTR "Good Luck" brooches

Got these two a few days ago. They are about the same size – 26mm (1in.) wide. The "silver" one has seen better days but the brass one is in perfect condition. I guess these are "sweetheart"...
