    At first glance it appears German however variations of a crown can also be seen on a wide range of army uniform buttons worn by countries of the British realm. Not really sure about this one. Canadian perhaps?

    Hopefully someone should be along soon with some more information.

    It's definately not a British crown. European? Probably, maybe Prussian but other European Royal Houses use a similar crown.

    It's possibly Belgian.

    There are different style crowns for varying ranks of nobility, this crown is a King's Crown. Could be off a dress uniform for a police or civilian official type?
