Hi,

Strange with english on it, but it has a particular Italian fascist look about it. Not just the flag, but the eagle and a kind of fasces?

Interesting, hope someone will know for sure

cheers, Tim

Here is the back of the badge. Sorry, but no better picture. It seems to be a P in a circle

OK, that muddies the water a bit. These clutch fittings are very modern, so can't be Italian WW2 era.

Hmmm, got me stumped now.... maybe Billy is on to something.
