    Here is a Zog era Officer grade badge. It comes cased, and used to belong to Bilal Nivica, Head of the Albanian Gendarme. Some googling to do on this. Sadly no documents:(

    Ignoring the pin, it appears to be a 3 piece award:

    - a circular "back"

    - the helmet part on top soldered onto it

    - a circular "front" incl. the enameled pieces

    It feels somewhat fragile so am amazed it is in one piece after more than 80 years!

    The case is custom fit with an opening in which it snuggly sits.
