I recenty came across this pin and have been trying to find out the meaning of J-R-Z,Along with what looks like points of intrest...Unless it's a flaw in the enamaling it look's like two rivers one w/a dot at end,beside two dot's(below jucsoslav.)to the left,Above jucosla.There appears to be two more dot's.It's a beautiful pin that is why i bought it.

The Jugoslovensko Republicansko Zdruzenje (JRZ), successor to the Slovensko Republicansko Zdruzenje (SRZ) was created in 1918 in Chicago, Illinois. The JRZ included Serbs and Croats in its membership. In the early years (1918-1922), the organization was dominated by Etbin Kristan and John and Frank Petric. After 1922, Charles Pogorelec, Frank Zaitz (Zajc) and Filip Godina played major roles in its policy formulation. The JRZ advocated the creation of a democratic, federated republic (Yugoslavia) composed of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes. Between World War I and World War II, the organization supported social-democratic opposition in Yugoslavia. During World War II and after, it supported the Partisan movement. As a result of the Yugoslav-Soviet split of 1948 and anti-communist sentiment in the United States at the same time, the JRZ ceased to function.
