More likely, if it is Canadian, to be C Squadron NWMP (Or some sub unit of the NWMP). Do you have the Bolton book on RCMP insignia? It may be covered in there.

Default CNWMP Title

Thanks for the responses so far, both make sense. I don't have the book unfortunately.

Wondering if it was a special order piece for attending the Coronation of George V in 1910, hence the "C" added ?

Question for the OP: Are you the same person who sells on eBay under the user name arcticmedals?

The prefix of 'Royal' was granted in 1903, so if it is a NWMP title it has to be before then. I have looked at a few web sites and it is not mentioned, but, as we know not all sites are complete.
