    The peacock is very nice and goes well with that tartan. And, oddly enough, I purchased the same Lion Rampant on ebay- you are right about the price- I think it was around $6.00 including S/H. I didn't care for the rubber backed pins- I had a hard time removing them, I tried clutch backings too, but the diameter of the pins was just small enough to keep the clutches loose, and I finally lost one. So I whipped out my trusty dremel with a grinding head and took the pins off and replaced with a straight pin/clasp assembly and attached it using Gorilla Glue- you don't ever want to use too much of that-so after grinding away all the excess bubbled up Gorilla Glue, the pin sits nicely on my Stewart Black, right now resting on the top of my thigh as I type. Its a nice pin. Good purchase, long story.
