The style of helmet plate shows that it was worn from 1953 to 1967 before Flintshire Constabulary and Denbighshire Constabulary were merged into Gwynedd Constabulary. The coat-of-arms in the centre is different from the helmet plate worn from 1967 to 1974.
Gwynedd Constabulary was formed in 1950 by the amalgamation of Caernarvonshire Constabulary, Anglesey Constabulary, and Merionethshire Constabulary.
Flintshire Constabulary and Denbighshire Constabulary were merged into Gwynedd Constabulary in 1967, but it retained its existing name.
On 1 April 1974 Gwynedd Constabulary area was renamed North Wales Police. North Wales Police (Heddlu Gogledd Cymru) is the territorial police force responsible for policing North Wales.
