Found this along the side of my house. Home was built in 1914. Any idea what kind of pin it is? Girl Scouts? Railroad?

Last photo is the pin next to a couple wheat pennies.

Thanks! IMG_20170522_151201334.jpgIMG_20170522_151810646_HDR.jpgIMG_20170522_151829412.jpg

Neat find! Here's one that looks like it-

This is an antique badge from the 49th Annual Convocation Grand Chapter R.A.M. held in Topeka on February 16-17, 1914. It has an old C-style pin clasp and its ribbon is in good antique condition with no fraying or tears. There is a medallion at the bottom that is marked on the back as being made by the Whitehead & Hoag Co. out of Newark, NJ. The badge measures 4" long by 1 3/4" wide.
