"Fear Naught"
I generally don't collect militaria, but this little trench art piece was too nice to pass up. Carved bone skull memento mori pendant or fob (maybe?) engraved with Royal Tank Corps abbreviation, founding year, and motto. The bottom of the piece is a lucky sixpence. Made sometime after 1923 based on the motto.
