Can you help
I bought a few badges at an auction at Durrants in Beccles on Friday. I wasn't able to get a really good look at them before the auction started as I only arrived 10mins before.
There were 2 frames, one with a mix of stuff but the other was mostly RM. Can anyone helpto ID these badges please? All the badges are 'well made', i.e. solid and very hard to bend by hand, but they are all of a very similar colour brass. I only paid 20 quid so I'm not too fussed if there are any duds. 1st is k/c crown surrounded by a wreath of leaves with lugs on the rear. no makers marks. 2nd is triangle with ON WAR SERVICE stamped on it surrounding a k/c with date 1916. on the rear it shows makers mark of J R GAUNT & SONS Ltd and the number 78585 3rd is a drum, |

The left one is a WO2 (RQMS) wrist badge.
Middle one is as it says a lapel badge for wear in civilian clothes by WW1 war workers. Third one is a military drummer's qualification badge. |
