This, together with the item listed below, is a real oddity. It appears to be an Other Ranks HPC device die struck in white metal with two original lugs to the reverse. It is not a collar badge as far as I can determine (not listed in Churchill) so I can only presume they are NCO issue for wear in the side or forage cap. It shows no sign of having been removed from the Helmet Plate Centre; the lugs are original and not in place of any other fittings. Circa 2.5cm wide and 2.4cm tall. Any information welcome. B63.2

The phrase here has to be " lovingly polished " and has therefore lost a lot of detail. An early pattern cap badge on two original lugs which have some signs of service wear. K&K Vol 1 No 672 refers Coll.
