Default Cross belt badge for ID

Hi All
Can anybody ID this for me please? It looks Polish or Eastern European I think. It has 3 blades of the rear for fastening it. The RA cap badge is just to give a scale reference.
Thanks, cheers,
Alex

Thanks very much. Is there any value to it, the owner is looking to sell it.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Not sure as to value. They were pretty common on the ground 20 or so years ago and they do still turn up.
