<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barn Owl, post: 902184, member: 4864&quot;]I bought this British sterling silver brooch. It looks like a coat of arms to me, and with the engraving on the back, I was wondering if it might be a military badge. The hinge looks older than 1929. Could the date have been added later?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]200349[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]200350[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I also picked up this interesting competition medal a while back. I thought it was unique because it had an iron cross on it. I&#039;m guessing the numbers mean that it was awarded on August 6, 1916. Could it have been part of a military-sponsored event, or just a civilian medal with a militaristic flair?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]200347[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]200348[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
