It's heavy, over 4 cm wide, obviously had something to do with artillery but other that this I have no idea what it is. Have anyone seen something similar? What could it be used for? Thanks -------------------- ~

Many Romanian military buttons were made in France and took French designs. This particular button I beleive was attached to a leather horses bridle harness.
