Cock!

Cock!

More specifically, game cock. Cock fighting was legal in Maryland well into the 20th century.

May have been a "Best Cock" award from a fight or show ?

I had no idea but apparently a Phoenix on a military button had significant meaning back in the day.

It could simply be art. Not a photograph and not science. It represents someone's idea of what a bird button ought to look like.

So if this is marked solved, could you share with the class what it is?

I was convinced Game Cock by the responses here but who knows?
