This is a double-headed eagle with enameled shield & cross. I spent a lot of time trying to identify a similar eagle on a mil. buckle to find out it was Span. fascist from the Spanish Civil War & it drove me crazy. I remember enough to suspect Russian, Prussian, Polish, Bavarian etc. here. The crest with the white cross might be a giveaway to somebody, but evaded me.
Very heavy silver & fairly well made but no Ct/kt marks or any other marking I can see with my loop.
Anybody know where it is from?

Some Swiss crests have a white cross on a red background. Good luck.
I second ROBinHawaii. It is the Serbian Cross.
OK, curling fans, is that positive ID so I can ck SOLVED?
I do appreciate the help. I would have never have guessed Serbia.
I'll chime in - It's the Serbian crest. The Serbs use the double headed eagle, and those frontwards and backwards "C" shapes in the red portion are the clincher. I saw my share of that cross and "C" shapes when I was a peacekeeper in Bosnia
