Hi All,

I dug this Anchor Pin yesterday and posted it on the Today's Forum.  It is all together pin and all was wondering if anyone knew the age of it and what it is for.  Thanks for looking and for any help.

Only because I've seen others that look very close to this I believe it is a WW2 Navy sweetheart pin.

I didn't think it was the one on this link, I was drawing parallels with the style only.  Its unlikely to be British Military issue but as you say could be a British sweetheart brooch/badge/pin
