You can see the gold fringes in some of obamas speeches so ...not sure it matters.
Also other countries use it
That's irrelevant. It refers to jurisdiction. It means military/admiralty jurisdiction. The law of the sea vs the law of the land (Constitution).
Oh yeah thats why it's been in presidential speeches for decades now? K
