Mike,
Another potential issue is that even if you find a sealed pattern card it may only show a description of the badge such as ‘Royal Cipher of King George Vth below a Tudor Crown all in gilding metal”. It may not show that the badge had a variety of end users including (possibly) the MPSC, Royal Defence Corps, Barrack Wardens etc. I think a search for photographic evidence of the badge in wear by an MPSC NCO of the right period would be better evidence.
