What's missing?

Would this be part of a button hole cross? What is missing?

No thoughts?

Bernie:

When this miniature was in my collection, I always assumed it to have been meant for affixing to an "Ordenskette" or chain of award miniatures worn on the lapel and affixed by pins at each end.

When I get back home and reunited with my collection, I can post a picture of such a mini-medal chain.
