West Indies Barbados Police White Metal Cap Badge, Kings Crown - Dowler

A die struck example with sharp detail and original slider. The slider has been stamped Dowler, Birmingham, but has been overstamped with an issue number (144) which has damaged the tip of the slider. A hole has also been punched through the tip of the slider by the owner, presumably for securing the badge to the hat, otherwise in good condition.
