Badge AR 1902
Hello everybody,
I’m new on this forum and this is my first post. I present you an old English unknown badge. I don’t know exactly what it is, can somebody help me with the identification? Thank you. Best regards from Switzerland. Bob www.sport-insignes.ch

I dont know but it could be something to do with the Coronation or perhaps a gift for Boer War veterans.
P.B.

I would agree with 8thfoot. AR is Alexandra Regina and the item was possibly a presentation badge following the Coronation of King Edward the Seventh on 9 August 1902.
