Issued WWI to the nearest next of kin female of a serviceman or woman overseas additional bars below the badge for further ons etc serving overseas. An anchor instead of the AIF in the centre indicated a relative in the RAN.

Yes, Leigh is correct. That is the WW1 Female Relatives badge. I have one that is still in the box of issue.
Most seem to be made by Stokes & Sons while the WW2 version often bears the mark of Rodd as well as a date of manufacture.

Aha, I thought you'd know what the badge is (I only know because I saw one on ebay at what I thought was a low price a couple of months ago).
