May be just a home made pin and the mark are the intitials of the person that made it...

I agree with Maine in that it is a homecrafted piece (not silver) with the initials of the designor.

I don't think its homemade. It looks like a peice of vintage costume jewelry - maybe 1945-1955?

Looks like a rhinestone in Eye and Fin. I think Rhinestones were often set in base metal alloys. If its a famous designer it could be worth a lot more than a silver pin. I've seen pins similar to yours (similar as in base metal, flashy and sea creatures) that sold for upwards of $300.00
