WW2 era cased badge. Inscribed: 'Imperial Year 2600 [1940], Public
Worker Merit Badge.' I am not sure if that is the correct translation of
shakkai jigyou, but it means someone who has worked for the
public in some capacity. It is a general term, so I do not know who
would have received this badge. However, I think that the city or
prefecture would have awarded it.

Nicely made Army badge. Marked jungin (pure silver) on the reverse, and stamped with a number.
I cannot imagine what this was used for nor what it signifies. The serial number and the fact that it is pure silver
suggest that it was an important item, but I'm really not sure.
