Interesting indeed.
 Most fouled anchor devices have the shank and flukes entwined along with the stock. What is the size of the impression? |

Talisman
That could be the right insignia.
Since I have an overactive imagination I'll guess that the emblem was burned into the wood with a red hot uniform button. |

I'm just wondering if it might be a WW2 Japanese navy stamp that would have been marking it as a trophy or being shipped back to Japan.
