I think the word is "Magnette". Unless I miss my guess, someone took
the boot badge from a Mark III or Mark IV Magnette, cut off the ends
of the Magnette script, and used it in place of the 3-piece MG boot
badge.
Now WHY somebody would do that with a rare Magnette boot badge, when
the 3-piece ones are readily available, is anybody's guess. I think
this falls in the category of IDPO (Incredibly Dumb Previous Owner).

Subject: Missing word.
Hi,
Bellow is the picture of the badge on my 64 MGB. Looking closely, you
will see that there is a word written on the top of the MG octagon.
Unfortunately the start and the end of that word are broken Does
anyone
know what is that missing word. And if so, what does it indicates.
