I cannot figure out what this 1958 cast brass/bronze plaque is!! Nothing pops up anywhere that I can find, maybe diving or military?..
Any body have a clue?
Approx. 6.75" tall 3" wide 1.5 lbs

Very cool vintage plaque, whether military or maritime it's a great find

I agree very odd. I'm also leaning towards possible maritime symbol. Has rope and what appears to be a swan with a shovel..and the flag looks to be maritime or Civil Defense?

I would suggest contacting your local historical society or maritime museum.

At first I didn't recognize the animal on this plaque but after a closer look I figured out it is a Dolphin. I hope it helps in your search.

That makes sense now! A dolphin and anchor...
