This has been in my collection for a while but I have no idea what it is other than its pin broaches.

I found this recently whilst looking for something else, but there could be many reasons for a crown lapel badge?

I once met a Tailor from one of the top London tailor shops. He dressed Seniors of the Royal Family and got given a crown ?
No idea how true this is, I believed the chap to be genuine.
