2 more Benelux items - British & Commonwealth Military Badge Forum

Unearthed another 2 items of insignia for confirmation.
I suppose that due to its size the Naval patch may be a blazer badge. It is in heavy bullion embroidery.
The obvious Dutch collar patch may not even be military. Have to wait and see.

Hi,

The collar patch is an old dutch police patch, the naval patch I don't know.

Regards,

Albert.

Thanks for all input.

I wonder if the 'M' could in some way be associated with Marconi?

Hi,

The crown is not Dutch or Belgium, I guess we can rule the Luxemburg navy out also

I think the crown is Danish, maybe have a look in that direction.

regards,
Albert

Marconi badge. An Italian post-monarchy example.
