Scarce 1973 Commemorative Issue 1901-1904 Mounties Hat Badge with a great applied Gaunt of London maker mark on the reverse! This badge commemorates the original badges worn by the first incarnation of the Canadian police (North West Mounted Police).

This 1973 example shows a bison at center and reads "Maintien le Droit" (Maintain the Right / Defend the Law).
