Help to ID Beret Badge. Winged Lion, Astral Crown

[Jersey Bouy]

Here is another mystery (to me) beret badge.

It measures 2" by 2" and apperars to be brass.

It is unmarked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The winged lion - symbol of St Mark the evangelist - is often associated with the city [or state in earlier times] of Venice.

But the badge doesn't look Italian to me.  The crown is very odd too - can we get a better shot of that?  Perhaps just on a sheet of paper or cloth?  Thanks.
