    it's not a hat pin, actually, but part of a Kriegsmarine sleeve badge.

    This is the metal device from the oval navy-blue cloth specialty/rating badge as worn by the Junior Petty Officer ratings of Sperrwaffen-Mechanikersmaat and Sperrwaffen-Obermechanikersmaat (the latter with an additional chevron below).

    The versions with the metal devices were worn on jackets and pea-coats; embroidered versions were worn on the shirts. (blue cloth with yellow embroidery on blue shirts, white cloth with blue embroidery on white shirts and work shirts and -jackets)

    Please see here for examples of the embroidered versions:
