Default Civil Defence Pins & Buttonholes

Hi Gents,

A few more small pins and buttonholes from the bottom of another box for opinions and info if possible.

Thanks

Kevin

no problems with that lot you have noted nursing reserve one is Stirling silver.

I have not seen the civil defence lapel in chrome finish before though, gilt is the usual finish WV crown I believe is WW1 period. Women’s volunteer.
Regards
Stephen

Steve,

Thanks for that, although it is not as clear, the other Nursing badge is also marked up as Sterling.

Regards

Kevin
