Hi Christian,

Could be a Crown Prosecution Service badge.

Just a thought but could the 'PS' stand for public school?

The Tudor crown dates this badge as pre-1952, but the Crown Prosecution Service was established only in 1986.

Is it definitely a UK badge? I was wondering if the initials might stand for something like "Civil Protection Service". There was a South African organisation of that name during WW2, but their badges would probably have had the equivalent Afrikaans initials BBD as well.
