>Today I was given enamel coated disk that my ggrandmother brought with
her from England when she came to Australia in 1888.
It is yellow with a crown at the top with the number
8294 below that and on the bottom it has the word "conductor". If you have
any ideas have a look at the picture at;

I would love to know what its purpose was>

This would appear to be a tram or omnibus conductor's recognition badge; I
have a similar one for a driver which belonged to my father
