In stock
This is a World War 1 Canadian General Service cap badge, featuring the 1914 pattern maple leaf design. The badge is made of bronze, with a raised Imperial Crown at the center, flanked by fleur-de-lis emblems, and “CANADA” boldly displayed at the bottom. The reverse side is marked “BIRKS 1914”, indicating it was manufactured by Birks, a well-known Canadian military insignia supplier.
This example has one missing eyelet on the reverse where the lugs would have been used for attachment. The badge was originally worn by Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) personnel as part of their service dress. These badges were commonly affixed to the cap or headdress as a representation of national service.
A historically significant piece, this badge represents Canada’s involvement in WW1, particularly in major campaigns such as Vimy Ridge, Passchendaele, and the Hundred Days Offensive.
