Default NP? Silver cap badge

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew what this hall marked silver badge was for which I saw on eBay.133385981959 I haven’t been able to find it in KK but I might of missed it.

It looks like a cypher for NP within a wreath.

Cheers
Rob

Its an officers collar badge for the Natal Police, I believe.

Its hallmarked 1929, so definitely Not Natal Police. They were disbanded 1910.

I believe it may be Nigeria Police officers badge, but do stand under correction.
