Rick W Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Right, I acquired this with some WW2 police medals, can anyone identify it, is it Military Police? Thanks in advance. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minesweeper Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I think that the Crown is a "Queen's" Crown as opposed to a "King's" Crown - so would it be post 1952/53? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick W Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Interesting. I have his pair of war medals as he seemed to have been a policeman during the Blitz in Spitalfields. Always a possibility that he went on serving after the war, although police records aren't online unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Just sent a pic to a mate who is job and a big time collector. It is a queens crown which we can see. All he can add is it looks foreign and has no idea. Sorry I can be of no more help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
