South African Police (Zuid Afrikaanse Politie) (1913-1926 Pattern) Button, King’s Crown, 25mm

Original South African Police (Zuid Afrikaanse Politie) uniform button, dating from the early Union of South Africa era (1913–1926). This early pattern features the King’s Crown above a central cap badge design with the “Zuid” spelling, which changed around 1926.

Struck in brass with a 25mm diameter, this button would have been worn on the tunics of police constables and officers during a period of growing state formation and national policing. A fine example of early South African law enforcement insignia under British colonial administration.

Condition: Very good
