- Notes :
- Title by cataloger., Production date range based on the years that the Canadian Provost Corps was active and the year (1953) in which the Queen's Crown replaced the King's Crown on the badge. However, this badge is likely related to World War I in some way, since it is part of the WWI Hunter collection.
