It is similar to the hood ornament on an old Ford Tractor, but I can't find a picture of one just like it.

The backside look just like an old Ford horn button off a for truck from 1946 through the mid 50s. So its probably from a boat steering wheel from the 50`s or 60`s.

Don't hold me to it but I think the old German Adam Opels had a similar design.

thanks, John- But I think it's bigger than mine... Looks like its from one of the BIG ford trucks... I just found an original horn ring for mine, along with an original steering wheel, and I don't think it'll fit. You might be able to get a few bucks for it on E-Bay!
