Dave, I think not. Haven't come across records of Malta CG unit.
Attaching a card of colonial Malta Customs buttons - not too clear, I'm afraid. They start off with CUSTOM - HOUSE MALTA and continue with CUSTOMS MALTA. The latter large size also comes w/o shank but with 4 eyelets as in RN CPO buttons. The single very small button is CUSTOM - HOUSE WEIGHER and apparently only that size has surfaced (15mm)

Many thanks for showing the Customs buttons. Two or three I've not seen before. A very nice group. As an aside, was there a Queen's Crown version of the Malta Customs badge?

Dave.
