Katipunan symbols .
Is it of the era though ?? Hmmmmm . I'm more curious about the trumpets with a 3 . The three stars in the sun triangle ? |

The sun and triangle symbol was a common enough even being used on stamps, see picture below. Like Rick I'm interested in the trumpet emblem with the 3 in it. As of yet I have not been able to find any information on this particular emblem but I'm still looking. I have been told though that it is not Filipino in origin.
