Default America's Cup Pin

Just got this on eBay....for $17.00 I couldn't pass it up...as I have a few other America's Cup things to go with it...The listing didn't mention anything about it being in the America's Cup...probably why I got it so cheap...

The Reliance was owned by Cornelius Vanderbilt III of the Untied States and in 1903 it defeated the Shamrock III...owned by Sir Thomas Lipton...the tea guy...of England...
