Or it could be put on the table for an order of 3 drinks .

Looks more like a résistance commemorative pin, of the kind they sold in all kinds of forms in Northwestern Europe in 1944-1950. Also it looks to be made out of thin brass sheet, a material that was scarce during the occupation years. You can find these pins lying around on flea markets in Belgium, Holland and France. I saw flags of all kinds (most GB/US/F/USSR), miniature Eiffel towers, Dutch windmills and even clogs. Value: next to nothing. In fact it's tourist's junk, sold to participants of the biggest mass travels ever: military invasions.
I see no connection whatsoever to French SS. Isn't this hand sign a common a general way of swearing an oath?

For me, as I look at the actual hand sign, the metal hand is not really like the oath hand sign. In the oath ; the two upright fingers are typically close to each other, never fully splayed out.
While the metal hand sign has the two upright fingers splayed far apart , like the old Brit "V" for victory sign.

So it seems different

Yes.

Appears to be a promotional item for a drink, indicating that it is good all the time: morning, afternoon and evening.
The spanish mark "Quina SAN C." used something similar in the '60.
