For some reason it looks railroad related to me
It kinda looks like the Union Pacific emblem.

I thought of that also, but I could not find anything indicating how long the Union Pacific symbol has been around. This looks pretty old to me. We are thinking it is a hat or visor cap pin. I think it might be 1876 centennial related since there are 13 stars and stripes. Thanks Tim!Originally Posted by Ill Digger link=topic=7758.msg88881#msg88881 date=1320811226
