Hi Tony
The Royal Marine Police buttons bore "R.M.P." with a rope border around the edge.
I believe the Admiralty Civil Police used the same buttons as the Admiralty Constabualry, into which they merged with the R. Marine Police in 1949, as Neil says, the buttons had a fouled anchor topped by the King's Crown.
All the best
Graham
