Interesting, I thought I'd seen illustrations of a Gloster's officer's cap badge with "strange" symbols on the tablet, I've been trying to locate it, thought it may be in a Crown Imperial.

Yes, the letters are VDCONTPI. I attach an example with EGYPT for comparison.

Why not drop a PM to Daniel Brinson , he hasn't logged on for a couple of months but may get an alert if he gets a PM.

I believe it is some sort of Masonic code script.

I quite sure it is a type of Masonic code writing. You can see this on various older Masonic regalia etc. I dont know how it works though.

CB,
Having looked it up I see the Masonic Code is mainly parts of a square, triangles and dots so I dont think its that. BUT I am swayed to agree with you that it is a coded script of some sort. Its on a Victorian badge so will be quite old. Could be some similar Fraternal Society of the period. regards
