Request for help identifying badge

[Clayton]

Gentlemen;

Can anyone tell us what we have here? We believe this badge is Romanian but we don't know why it was awarded or the time period.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Best regards,

Clay

Hello Just:

Yes, of course, please show this badge where ever you want. We can't seem to find this badge anywhere on the internet.

Its made really well and the eagle is wearing a crown so we assume it is of the Romanian kingdom era.

Many thanks for helping us.

The quality of the enamel is not good, judging from the picture, so I'm tempted to agree that it might be a tourist piece or a private organization rather than a royal order.

We really appreciate all who responded to this thread.

Our best regards to all,
