Did a little huntafter work. I came upon a signal, dug it, and out popped these shiny wings. Given how they came out of the ground, I was sure that it was silver or gold. After washing it off, I found that it says "stealing" on the back. Yes, I know that some will say "o, ma, that says sterling." I've looked at it carefully, and I'm 99% sure it says stealing. Weird.

Has anyone come across something like this before? I'd love to know what it is!

Its definitely pilots wings (A metal pin usually silver, given to new pilots after they get their pilots licence) but it does not look military. :icon_scratch: I think its for small single engine private planes. Maybe for a club or something. :dontknow:

Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:
