An early-pattern uniform button of the Kent Constabulary, bearing the King’s Crown and dating to the period before 1953. Buttons of this type were worn by officers of the county police force during the reigns of King George V and King George VI, reflecting the formalised insignia adopted by British constabularies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The button displays the Kent County Constabulary device in relief, surmounted by the King’s Crown, and is struck in white metal for wear on police tunics and outer garments. The larger 24mm size is typical of buttons intended for main tunic fronts or greatcoats, where a more prominent insignia was required.
