Unknown HMS Excellent Brass "Cap Badge"
Does anyone have any idea what this item is please ? Has all the features of a cap badge including two lugs (North and South) to the rear. I know that HMS Excellent was a Gunnery School but have no further idea what this might be.
Please be aware that this item will be offered for sale once identified. Thanks in advance Paul |

HMS Excellent
Paul, you have read the threads hopefully, no evidence of where it was worn for definite, so make your mind up . . !
A gunnery school gun team badge, possibly worn by Petty Officers? A gunnery school gun team instructors badge? Whatever, a cracking badge and 100% real, a belter . . ! Regards Rob |

Now I have a problem! Five forum members have expressed an interest in this badge and I don’t even have any idea as to what is a fair price !

Sealed bids contravene the requirements of the "sticky" re. pricing in the Classifieds.
I'd agree - evil bay. |

Spin the bottle? Settled most things at school.
In all seriousness I think if you come to a fair price offer it to whoever was first in line and take it from there. Rob has one, perhaps ask what he paid if he doesn’t mind saying in private. |

As Simon says "put it on ebay and let the forum members know about it.
A rare badge in excellent condition. Rob |

Or does your version of spin the bottle have different rules? Ah, you said at school - I was thinking of waaay past my (boys school) school days. Last edited by leigh kitchen; 12-09-21 at 07:58 PM. |
