Default “In Deo Spes” chrome cap(?) badges

Good morning

These arrived yesterday as part of a job lot: a pair of chrome badges as attached with the motto “In Deo Spes” (There is hope in God), 4.4 x 4.5cm. I’m thinking a UK private security company but, other than learning that a voided lozenge is a “mascle” (as form the cross), I’m drawing a blank. Any ideas will, as always, be greatly appreciated.

Usual caveat that they will be for swap or sale once ID’d to my satisfaction.

Thanks for looking

Graham

Hello Graham,

Better late than never. If this is still relevant, I recall from a while back this is the cap badge of the pupils at the military themed Prospect College Jamaica. There is no web site, but pictures online show a dress uniform of black trousers with yellow side stripe, a yellow jacket with black cuffs and red stand up collar, and a black peaked cap with yellow band.

Regards
