Unfortunately I don't have any backmarks as, because I don't believe they are what they are claimed to be, I have never purchased one! I have seen them advertised as being for sale over many years but never seen an image of the rear of the button. They seem to turn up fairly infrequently, so there can't be too many of them around - whatever they are!
I would just like to finally clearly identify this button in order to stop it being sold as something it isn't.
And before anyone points it out to me, I am aware that there are still Barrack Masters and Assistant Barrack Masters serving in the Royal Navy. The only reason I referred to them in the past tense was because all the so-called RN Barrackmaster buttons I have seen are King's Crown buttons.
