Paul,
It looks to be silver or silver plated and I know that NZ nurses would wear such a pin. The one I have is 32 MM long. I might be interested in it. Terry |

An identical one is on EBay at present with a photo showing it being worn in uniform by WW2 NZ Aircrew. Seller is asking £50.
Anyone interested at a tenner including UK post ? Paul |

Hi Paul,
This badge/brooch has been attributed to NZ nurses but was also allocated to travelling NZ sports teams including the All Blacks. Cheers, John |

Paul, Never a worry. I do often lose out due to the 6 hour time difference. But, I am always just happy to have what I have and can get and never rue what I miss or can't have.
