Hi Paul, It rminds me of a post WWII or period, commercial Jewelry Tie pin. Max

Hi Paul - I think you're right on about it being an early 20th century good luck piece. Not too popular post-WWII, even though someone handed me a business card yesterday that had a big swastika on it. Gentleman was Hindu, and for him it still meant good luck.


Cheers,

Stephen
