SOUTHERN RHODESIAN RANK INSIGNIA GORGET FOR A HEADMAN.
This is a larger version which came out in the early 1960's. As you can see it has the Coat of Arms of Rhodesia to the centre. This may be in Silver, we are not sure. It looks stronger than just white metal.
"Quartermaster's Comment":- This is a very nice item, which is getting very thin on the ground in such good condition.
