Default Royal Military Police 'P' plated cap badge.
Can anyone help with this one?
Silver plated? 11mm Gaunt marked slider with a 'P'.
Would this be an Officers' badge?
Thanks Tony.

Tony,
I believe these were warrant officers badges?

Andy that would explain the slider rather than lugs.
Cheers Tony.

There are GvR, EiiR and GviR MP versions too. I am still after the GvR and GviR MP versions.

"Goddard's" (or similar) silver dip. The worn areas can be refurbished using "Nushine" solution.

Tony,
I'd go with Silverdip too, but literally just a few seconds and then wash well in warm soapy water!!
