Default small pin

I found this small pin the other day and was just wondering if it has any meaning or not, as far as the symbol goes? It is 1 2/8" long and seems to be made out of copper or brass. Thanks in advance for the help Pappy.

Brian

Perhaps an old airline flight attendant's pin? Interesting find!

Brian, It appears to me to be a small hair barrett.
