Post SPECIAL LANDAU EMBLEM?

bought a 65 hardtop off ebay and am currently restoring it. below the emblems on the hardtop (the normal bird centered in rectangle), is another emblem. just always thought that someone just wanted to pimp out the car or something or thought it would look cute. then i saw other posts about a special landau. this vehicle has no power antenna and no woodgrain, so i never thought of it as landau.
the emblem is about 1.5 inches square, has two lions on either side facing each other, and some sort of unidentifiable crest in the middle, and is the color gold. it is located about an inch below and centered from the "bird in square" emblem.
just wondering if anyone knows if that qualifies as special landau or if my suspicions were correct all along.

What "body" code is listed on your VIN plate?

63A = hardtop
63B = landau (includes special landau)
76A = convertible

Good luck with the restoration!
