Someone put a little note on the back that reads &quot;1790-1800 Brass Constitution of the US emblem of the top of a hat&quot; Is 3 inches tall.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not even sure that this is military but I though maybe I would start here. Apologies if not...if you could point me in the right direction. Is this a common insignia? Do you know its history?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance</p><p><img src="https://southcentralus1-mediap.svc.ms/transform/thumbnail?provider=spo&amp;inputFormat=jpg&amp;cs=fFNQTw&amp;docid=https%3A%2F%2Fasecurednet-my.sharepoint.com%3A443%2F_api%2Fv2.0%2Fdrives%2Fb!qa4FPDoLNU6V0yqR9Fizq6C9PwjpaCRNv8wrI31uT2bzvVVAzYp_RbjOXVVLGYob%2Fitems%2F0127CLVGIZPQK6FOYLVRCYY2HOCW6ZO2GB%3Fversion%3DPublished&amp;access_token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJub25lIn0.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.WVZsU1E1SGtwdldFY2hIUVNMLy80dFVTc0phcmlLSVQ1bHlPdDFmSEpIRT0&amp;encodeFailures=1&amp;width=3840&amp;height=1796&amp;srcWidth=&amp;srcHeight=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://southcentralus1-mediap.svc.ms/transform/thumbnail?provider=spo&amp;inputFormat=jpg&amp;cs=fFNQTw&amp;docid=https%3A%2F%2Fasecurednet-my.sharepoint.com%3A443%2F_api%2Fv2.0%2Fdrives%2Fb!qa4FPDoLNU6V0yqR9Fizq6C9PwjpaCRNv8wrI31uT2bzvVVAzYp_RbjOXVVLGYob%2Fitems%2F0127CLVGNG6FZW6SF4PVH234DEUZUOF37X%3Fversion%3DPublished&amp;access_token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJub25lIn0.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.WVZsU1E1SGtwdldFY2hIUVNMLy80dFVTc0phcmlLSVQ1bHlPdDFmSEpIRT0&amp;encodeFailures=1&amp;width=3840&amp;height=1796&amp;srcWidth=&amp;srcHeight=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://southcentralus1-mediap.svc.ms/transform/thumbnail?provider=spo&amp;inputFormat=jpg&amp;cs=fFNQTw&amp;docid=https%3A%2F%2Fasecurednet-my.sharepoint.com%3A443%2F_api%2Fv2.0%2Fdrives%2Fb!qa4FPDoLNU6V0yqR9Fizq6C9PwjpaCRNv8wrI31uT2bzvVVAzYp_RbjOXVVLGYob%2Fitems%2F0127CLVGJWO7WBEC2PEBBILAAHNHEL7RL4%3Fversion%3DPublished&amp;access_token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJub25lIn0.eyJhdWQiOiIwMDAwMDAwMy0wMDAwLTBmZjEtY2UwMC0wMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAvYXNlY3VyZWRuZXQtbXkuc2hhcmVwb2ludC5jb21AY2I4NDQ0M2EtMmJkNy00YTNjLTgyZDMtMTI3MWVhODcxNmYzIiwiaXNzIjoiMDAwMDAwMDMtMDAwMC0wZmYxLWNlMDAtMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwIiwibmJmIjoiMTYxNzMyMTYwMCIsImV4cCI6IjE2MTczNDMyMDAiLCJlbmRwb2ludHVybCI6IkZZSk9ObjF5THl5am03RHQxNkhHSnV2N0ZEZzdOSS9vUFcxOUFmeHl4Ykk9IiwiZW5kcG9pbnR1cmxMZW5ndGgiOiIxMjEiLCJpc2xvb3BiYWNrIjoiVHJ1ZSIsInZlciI6Imhhc2hlZHByb29mdG9rZW4iLCJzaXRlaWQiOiJNMk13TldGbFlUa3RNR0l6WVMwMFpUTTFMVGsxWkRNdE1tRTVNV1kwTlRoaU0yRmkiLCJzaWduaW5fc3RhdGUiOiJbXCJrbXNpXCJdIiwibmFtZWlkIjoiMCMuZnxtZW1iZXJzaGlwfHNnb2RzY2hhbGtAYXNlY3VyZWQubmV0IiwibmlpIjoibWljcm9zb2Z0LnNoYXJlcG9pbnQiLCJpc3VzZXIiOiJ0cnVlIiwiY2FjaGVrZXkiOiIwaC5mfG1lbWJlcnNoaXB8MTAwMzIwMDBiNGI4ZTZmYUBsaXZlLmNvbSIsInR0IjoiMCIsInVzZVBlcnNpc3RlbnRDb29raWUiOiIzIn0.WVZsU1E1SGtwdldFY2hIUVNMLy80dFVTc0phcmlLSVQ1bHlPdDFmSEpIRT0&amp;encodeFailures=1&amp;width=3840&amp;height=1796&amp;srcWidth=&amp;srcHeight=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
