Description

New South Wales Police, helmet plate, Edward VIII 'ER' cypher with Queen Victoria crown incorrectly used, probably made locally for one year in 1936, in oxidised bronze for 'Night Duty'. Toned extremely fine and extremely rare.

There is also a possibility that this badge was actually an Edward VII issue that was withdrawn because the cypher ER was incorrectly used instead of EVIIR.
