Thanks for the information , as the photos didn't show scale or rears it was difficult to judge size.
It is interesting that the small lapel badges were made by a jeweller as it could support my theory that the earlier badges were also made by a jewelller rather than a badge manufacturer , especially as the MURPHY STERLING mark also appears on a bracelet (see post # 19).
