REME Queen's Crown Cap Badge

Material: Bimetal (white-metal horse and globe over gilt brass lightning bolts and crown)
Size: 30 mm w × 50 mm h
Description: This cap badge displays the sophisticated heraldry of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. The design features a beautifully detailed silver horse, rearing and chained, standing atop a textured globe to represent worldwide engineering deployment. Positioned directly behind the horse is a bold, gold-toned lightning flash that represents electrical engineering forces, which sits beneath a flowing banner reading R.E.M.E. and the St. Edward’s Queen's Crown. Struck in durable gilding metal and white metal, the front face showcases a fine, un-voided relief design with a crisp contrast between the two metallic elements. The reverse side features a solid vertical attachment slider stamped cleanly with the maker's hallmark Marples & Beasley.
Circa: Mid to late 20th Century
