It's the crest of the Scottish Police Constabularies. It's design and use dated from 1928 and it was in use in that form by the various Scottish police forces until 1975, then the crown was replaced with the crown of Scotland, otherwise the present design as is currently used by the P.S. of Scotland is much the same
