Naval HJ Pin?

[Scott C.]

Don't know what this is or if it's authentic or fantacy. It's approximately 33mm (55mm with the pin) x 20mm; the flag is soldered to the anchor. Any opinions on use or authenticity?

Thanks!

looks good to me , but not hj , possibly a naval orientated sympathy badge ?

Here is an earlier version with out the pin. Nice enamels!

Thanks gents. My first thought was HJ due to the resemblance of the flag to the 1st model HJ member pin flag. It does have nice enamel details, but I've been bitten by quality enamel work on repros . The one positive thing I can say is I've never seen another like it (with a swaz flag).
