This is a flag placed on a piece to indicate its promotion when a piece on the "Gyoku-sho" side is promoted. Originally, in Shogi, turning a piece over indicates that it has been "promoted", but in Samurai Shogi, a 'promotion' is indicated by placing a flag on it. The flag bears the crest of the Uesugi family and the characters for "毘(Bi)" and "龍(dragon)". Each letter is 1/8" square and very finely sculpted.
