Treasure detail

Royal Canadian Air Force Button

Under Review

Material: Gilt brass.

Diameter: 25 mm.

Description: Royal Canadian Air Force button with R.C.A.F. eagle in flight beneath the Queen’s Crown, set on a horizontally lined field.

Reverse: Marked Made in Canada / Filigrane / Sherbrooke P.Q., with fixed shank.

Circa: 1953-1968.

Notes:

This 25 mm RCAF service button represents the Queen’s Crown pattern used after the 1953 crown change and before Canadian Forces unification. The Filigrane Sherbrooke backmark places it among Canadian-made examples rather than British contract production.
