I have no idea what this is called. I think it might be used for clothing? It looks like the circular pieces are supposed to go through button holes. Anyone know what it is or what its called?
Thanks in advance.

I have seen items like this used on Europian cloaks or capes. The buttons look lie they could be formed from coins which might be a lead to the country of origin. The monogram appears to be much newer than the origional engraving.
