Thought that you may like to see this unusual piece I picked up some time ago.

I've no idea whether it should have been attached to anything or whether this is how it was. I was taken by the enamel flag.

Size wise it's about 2 inches in diameter.

Cheers
Don

I do like that Don. I'm betting the leather straps are meant to be there. Reminds me of some of the mountain troops rememberance pieces.

Congratulations on a nice find and I appreciate seeing it.

Hello Don, that's really neat! I like it. Perhaps it was meant to be hung from a button via the top leather loop? Would be neat to find an "in wear" pic! Regards, Leipzig
