Rare Ben Amun Citation Bar Pin

This pin looks like a Police Commendation Citation or Medal of Honor bar pin, with a red enamel background and gold stars. Unlike most bar pins that you find like this, this is extra weighty and has some wonderful details. There is an extra thick border around the edges, and the back has an intricate leaf design along with the copyright for "Ben-Amun", a high end jewelry brand made in New York City. Unfortunately, I do not have the history of this piece and whether or not it was commissioned or made for a specific individual or ceremony. It measures 1-7/8" long by about 1/2" tall. In very good condition with a little bit of darkening on the red. The gold stars are very reflective and most likely 24K electroplated.
