The badge features a depiction of Saint George, England's patron saint, rendered in gold and amber hues. Its dimensions measure H: 5.6 cm; W: 4.6 cm; Weight: 16 g, making it a delicate yet impactful object. The motto inscribed on this prestigious decoration reads "Honi est qui mal think about it" which translates to "Shame on him who thinks evil of it".
