I was imprecise......1948 to 54 would be more accurate.
I am going by Avers 1 which shows silver badges......after this date they are alloy.
Sorry don't know which engineering school.
Just picked this one up, it has no academy name....is it general staff?
Its quite worn with the hammer and sickle nearly removed.....silver early issue.
I have re-read your post and I did not look at your pics the correct way.
I now see that the badge is "The generic academy badge"
I see this from the one you have posted. Thank you.
I have seen this badge also since my last post offered by a well known and respected dealer who is selling a German/nickel silver version.....it made me think and investigate but this one is made of high grade silver ?
They do look the same but this is definitely silver.
