<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 10396086, member: 36"]I would guess man, but that's just a guess; it could be either or both, and probably was. The picture of the back on the auction site shows the cross can be removed. From what I can see, the star is meant to be worn on a cord or ribbon. If it were a pin I'd expect the star to have a bar of metal behind it, to make it safer to wear.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
