As far as i can make out it says "INVICTA" which is the motto or part motto of hundreds of things but I think it's safe to say it's the bottom of a badge Wink

Welsh Gaelic? You've just been added to so many Welsh nationalist hit lists it's untrue Cheesy Welsh is not Gaelic it's Brythonic.......but neither it's Latin and could be any age as it's still a commonly used motto Wink

I saw it at Ross - it's quite large - looks like the kind of thing you might have put on the side a steam powered piece of machinery. I'm glad you thought it said INVICTA too.

Is it big enough to be off an old Invicta car - Car badge possibly ?

It's the bottom part of a Aveling Porter Invicta prancing horse badge like this one:
