A very rare and unusual piece. This is an award presenting by the Royal Canadian Naval Association, Admiral Murray Branch Pictou, Nova Scotia. It has the Royal Canadian Navy Crest along with the Merchant Navy Crest along with a 3rd crest that I have not identified yet. The piece is dated Charter Day September 21, 1996 and it is presented to "Ralph and Mrs Heighton from Mrs L.W.,Murray" It is a beautiful display piece but needs a good cleaning and polishing...many of the surface scratches would probably cover nicely.
