I've only seen the second design as a medal - a reproduction of the centre design of a medal or one that's had the silver part of it melted down, and the central design lugged as a badge?

[Peter Brydon]

Thanks David.

Leigh, do you know what medal please ?

I've checked through thre only couple of books on medals I have, no trace, Googling shows what I'm thinking of here, "Honourific Titular Medal":

I had the opportunity to buy a group with one of the all silver versions of the medal years ago but I was zeroing in on WWI British medals at the time.

Sorry, only half an answer, perhaps half a red herring.

[Peter Brydon]

Thanks Leigh,

Found attached, perhaps part of a medal or a badge to be worn ( instead of the complete medal ) to show you have the award ?

Getting more complicated, I have now found an item similar to mine described as a cap badge ?
