Canadian CEF 245th Battalion (Montreal Grenadiers) Recruiting Pin Badge - Sterling Silver, Birks

A stunning recruitment award for when it was proving harder and harder to find men to join the hundreds of battalions that formed the CEF. Maker marked 'Birks' and stamped Sterling to the reverse. Circa 3.4 cms tall. Original pin and clasp. In very good condition. A circlet with the words "I secured a recruit for this battalion". The number 245th to centre and a small version of this battalion's cap badge (The Montreal Grenadiers) to the top. Rare.
