Hello, can anyone help with this please
I have a Solid silver Birmingham hallmarked pin badge made in 1892-1893, the badge depicts 2 bell tents, and marked T.C.c and has a British flag, My father left this to me and as he was a military collector believe it is from the Boer war, please see attached pictures.
regards Mike

This looks like a piece of so called trench art, made by a soldier..... The T.C.C. could be his initials, or a location.......

Lovely piece, I agree with Mike.

So far I have 38 soldiers with the initials TCC who served in the ABW - take your pick!

But maybe TCC is a wife or sweetheart.
