The whereabouts are truly unknown. It came way before that, war torn soldiers issued the symbol during Victory of Europe Day, VE Day, in 1945. If it was ever issued before that I am unaware, but the 1960's didn't have anything to do with it.
Designed for the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War by Gerald Holtom in 1958, this forked symbol was used as part of the British nuclear disarmament movement. It is a literal combination of semaphoric signals (visual signals with hand-held flags, often used at sea) for the letters N and D, which stands for "Nuclear Disarmament."
The symbol's first appearance was made among thousands of British anti-nuclear campaigners who set off on a 50-mile march from London's Trafalgar Square to the weapons factory at Aldermaston. By the 1960s it had become synonymous with the anti-war movement.
