Cuff size button. Looks like a Roman laying at the feet of a ruler or something like that. Cant find it in my resources.

Backmark is hard to read but I think it is J.S.M. & Co. Birmm

Any ideas?

It is from a Mersey Docks & Harbour Board uniform. Here is a discussion-

couldn't get the image since I am not a member - but here is a link to a blazer on ebay and you can see the button design-
