Hi,
Certainly a sand cast version of the NZ Artillery manufacturer in the Middle East?
Best regards

Sand cast? Middle East?
Usually the easy way to tell is the copper lugs are cast into the badge. Unfortunately your photo does not give a good view of the lugs, could you supply a better picture please?

The lugs look to be in a sad condition but they do seem to be cast into the badge, so yes IMO most likely manufactured in the Middle East.
