Religious Piece? Is that Christ?

[GioTheGreek]

I was out exploring in the woods. Not much to show for it aside from a tombac button and this piece here. If it looks familiar, fill me in. I think it is religious.

Religious Pin?

Happy hunting!

Looks to be Christ, also to be old nice one..

Looks like Christ carrying the cross to Golgotha, where he was crucified.

Haha, Golgotha. That's what my grandmother used to call the hill she had to take on the way back from the grocery store.

It looks like he's carrying something.

St. Andrew it is! Thanks, IP.

Think it is a military piece - worn on a tartan sash - think bagpipers - similar to this:
