Bobs Empire Home Guard General Sir D.Haig 1917 Lest We Forget badge

An original Great War period 'General Sir D.Haig 1917 Bobs Empire Home Guard Lest We Forget badge' rare in the fact that he was made 'Field Marshal' on the 1st January 1917 and the badge probably had very little circulation, if any at all; gilded brass circular example, with embossed profile of 'General Sir D.Haig' within red and blue enamel title circlet. Very good condition, retaining original buttonhole fitting, enamel perfect, gilt remains fresh, an excellent example.
Diameter 26mm.

'General Sir Douglas Haig' was made 'Field Marshal' on 1st January 1917.
