ROYAL YACHT BRITANNIA, H.M.Y, (Her Majesty's Yacht) Ship's Wall Badge, Yacht Tampion Crest

Dated around 1950 - 60's

This is a period piece, NOT a modern reproduction and was potentially original to the ship.

This is an extremely rare collectable and I cannot find another similar example !

Her Majesty's Yacht Britannia, also known as the Royal Yacht Britannia, is the former royal yacht of the British monarchy. She was in service from 1954 until 1997. She was the 83rd such vessel since King Charles II acceded to the throne in 1660, and is the second royal yacht to bear the name, the first being the racing cutter built for the Prince of Wales in 1893. During her 43-year career, the yacht travelled more than a million nautical miles around the world to more than 600 ports in 135 countries. Now retired from royal service, Britannia is permanently berthed at Ocean Terminal, Leith in Edinburgh, Scotland.
