I am sure that the collective mind of T-Net can ID this thing I found today.

It is 1 inch long of so, 1/2" wide maybe.

Found in my favorite area where everything is 100 years old, so I am expecting something from the 1920's.

The center circle broke off after recovery, so it may be improperly oriented.

Any ideas?

I believe it has to do with a charm for a graduating class of a high school. I think they used to be called a "key" of some sort. :dontknow:

Might be a award for scholarship. I've seen similar ones.

Thanks, guys. You are awesome.

I just have to clean it enough to read the lettering.
