Mark McM Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Hello All, Thought I'd post this in the hope that someone could identify it. I prefixed this badge as Polish due to the distinctive 'rocker' though the eagle seems wrong for a Polish eagle. Any thoughts??
IrishGunner Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Mark, I can see where you might think Polish. But the Polish eagle looks left (not right like on your badge). It's also not French Imperial eagle, since those wings go down. Sorry, that I can only tell you what it's not... Hopefully, others will chime in with their thoughts.
Mark McM Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 understood, Irish... I noticed that as well. This mystery badge is a bizarre one.
Taz Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Hi Mark, can't find a match at the moment either sorry, i was thinking that it might be French they like the round badges in their designs, keys and swords sometimes denotes quartermaster. Regards Eddie
Mark McM Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Thanks, Eddie. Any feedback is good feedback at this point! Much appreciated!
giller Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Small explanation. To determine which side eagle's head is turned you have to look from the position of an eagle. A Polish eagles are always facing right. w/r Giller

Have you seen anything like this badge in Poland?
