I have 4 center caps, about 8-1/2 inches across but I cannot identify
the car they came from. They are stamped with the Ford oval on back.
The center is raised (stands out from the plate that screws to the rim)
and has this emblem: glossy red circle about 1-1/2 inches across with a
gold 3-pronged crown under which are three gold lions (or some such
skinny animal with a tail). Outside the red circle is a silver band and
then around that is a black ring On the black ring are two silver
laurels (leaves/wreaths) which surround the red emblem. The base plate
has five 1" holes (decorative) positioned like a 5-point star for
lug-nuts, and the outer perimeter of the base plate is open with spokes
(33 rectangular holes or slots, with something like spokes or bars
between them.) It has three screw holes to the rim. Someone out there
is going to know what these are, just based on the
crown/lions/laurels..... I hope! Thanks.

The crown and lions shure sound like a Monarch to me. Generally not
screwed to the rim though. Pictures??
