I could see that being worn as a spurious cap badge(?) by someone who felt it lent them some authority.
Purely to be pedantic , the 1915 enamel badge either had the larger Gaunt makers mark around the top of the badge (as in the horrific example) or a small Gaunt makers mark on the back of the crown. They didn't have any raised 'series' letter.
