    Is this a sorority badge? No marks that I can see other than the engraving...it's a pretty little thing that belonged to my husbands great aunt. 1911. She lived in the Boston area.

    Thanks for looking :happy: IMG_7534.JPG IMG_7535.JPG

    It's not a college fraternity because, if it were, initials would include Greek letters. (In other words, it would read "BBX.")

    Likely a club pin for a 1911 graduate.

    And probably sterling.
    Sterling was an inexpensive material at the time.

    It's VERY gold in person, I just looked at my photos and it does look silver! Oops! Weird light.
