Hi, Zob
1. What makes this a late war RN badge?
2. Can someone at home remove the bullion without leaving holes or damage to the wool? I see none.
3. Would a possible one-off like this have been made specially, or adapted from an existing RN badge and thus the anchor removed by a tailor in the normal course? The work inside and out looks professionally done and undisturbed. It is unclear to me how the eagle could be affixed after the cap was built up.
4. Then there is the issue of the 1920s cap itself, and why a supposed late war badge is on it...
Rgds
