S. Queensferry is an area in Edinburgh, Scotland. I believe it is the image of the town's seal, as shown in the upper left hand corner here:

This town is located some ten miles to the north west of Edinburgh, on the shore of the Firth of Forth between the Forth Bridge and the Forth Road Bridge, approximately 8 miles (13 km) from Edinburgh Airport.

The town is named after Saint Margaret of Scotland (perhaps the image on your find) who used to cross the firth (an arm of the sea) by ferry from "Queen's Ferry" to visit her chapel in Edinburgh Castle. Her son, David I of Scotland, awarded the ferry rights to the abbey.

Colin, you may be right.
I was looking at the cross and attempting to ID the type of duck. Could they be eiders?
I believe many ships leave from this area and I was wondering if the pin is a souvenir.
Aye, Don.....

eider ducks are usually found on the sea so I think you are on the the right track
