sabrigade Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I have eventually found some time to follow up on collectables in the Sudan. This is a silver hallmarked cap badge which I assume belonged to an officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great piece1Hi Ulsterman,Do you perhaps know what company the letters/makers mark " WSD " represent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 No- I am looking through my books as I type. Most of my stuff ends @ 1927. However, I know a guy who has a comprehensive UK silversmiths' Index. I'll call him in a few hours (time zone difference means it's 5am there).
