The Roman Eagle and Fasces are roman symbols in origin. They would later become adopted by Benito Mussolini and Italian Fascists to symbolize the recreation of a new Roman Empire. The Fasces was usually a bundle of sticks or rods representing Unity, with an axe in the center signifying the strength that comes from Unity (See Italian Fascism/collectivism). The pin is made from a unique metal die-cast with 3d effect and is perfect to wear on your lapel and various types of clothing.
