Eastern Arab Corps plus an/other
Pictured are a couple of recent buys, The sword/knife was worn by the Eastern Arab Corps, Sudan. The other badge is I think for Omani troops, but what pussels me is that is is plain with no markings. John.

Hi
The Omani badge looks like the standard early pattern that has been polished/filed down flat. Eddie |

Thanks for your reply Eddie, I had it tested at a jewellers today and it tests for silver, John.

Ah - well in that case it's an officers badge - hand made in the souk from melted down coinage silver. Sad really it's been so polished. They were normally very finely finished by hand.
