Hi all

You can also see the round 1914 Admiralty badge that was issued unnumbered and then, I understand, supposed to be returned to be numbered. I wonder how that went for them....

Have also seen the same badge with red paint in the crown and white paint in the inner circle.

I used to wonder about the "round cornered" 1916 badge but, having worked in a factory at one time, you can see how those sharp corners would be more than a curse!

Some posts ago, I set out some variants of the 1916 "triangle" including ones with "year bars" and also good quality little silver (?) "dangler" style versions.

I do have some "doubles" of these unofficial "on war service" badges so PM me if you want to acquire any!
