Default Mini Royal Naval Petty Officers badge ?

Just picked up badges in image top to local schools

Round sick berth screen print badge ? WW2 a small tomb.Stone badge letter D ?

What stands out is the very small petty officers badge kings crown in Bullion with a stout pin to the rear I am thinking medical staff ?

Can anyone advise never seen one this small befor 5 cm by just over 2 cm
The full size badge I had and placed along side to show as comparison.

Regards

Stephen

Only thing I could suggest is maybe made as a beret badge before the official beret badges were approved, similar to the small scale officer badge?

Could it have been made for a child's outfit, to match his dad's uniform? It used to be popular.

RN officer badges, with full size and beret together so you can see the size difference.
Cheers,
Alex
