Default RNY or Provost fake?
Another badge I have had about for awhile, but not sure of. It is small, 1 inch in height. Thanks,

CB

The Norfolk yeomanry badges were much larger.

It may also be Royal Defence Corps

The RDC provost staff corps badges are usually flat backed and thicker than this, which is why I am doubtful about it.

Definitely not NY.

It could be Provosts, size of the corps and length of GvR’s reign encompassing a world war, manufacturers variations are to be expected.

A curious badge with all that pitting front and back.

Similar to my one here, which is probably Provost.
