This enamel pin says "geþyld byþ middes eades" in Old English which translates as "patience is half of happiness" in English. 

The point of this proverb is to teach us that patience is a virtue.

This proverb along with the other Old English sayings in this range are taken from Durham Cathedral.

Whether it's to celebrate your heritage or because a friend is being very patient and you'd like to show your support, or maybe a child is being very impatient and you'd like to remind them that people have always needed reminding to be patient, or maybe you just like the design, either way, it makes a lovely unique little gift.
