Re: button ,yet again

It's a modern (20th century) "blazer" button made for use on sports coats, jackets, sweaters, etc. The bird, sometimes depicted with three legs, is often described as a Teutonic eagle. The motto Spes Nostra Es Deus is Latin for, "God is our hope." Blazer buttons often feature antique-looking designs or crests, and Latin or pseudo-Latin mottoes.
