Is this a Mason's badge?

Not sure, looks to be a mason's pin or badge. Found it in the back yard of an old home. Thanks.

Nice find, I'm prutty sure the 32 in the center means the owner was 32nd degree mason.

Re: Is this a Mason's badge?

The double headed Eagle, and the 32 indicate that it is a Scottish Rite Mason. There are several different levels of Masonry, the first being the Blue Lodge, which goes through degrees 1-3. The final step of the Blue Lodge is a lot of work, hence the term, "given the third degree".

Steps 4-32 can be accomplished through either the Scottish Rite, or the York Rite. They really aren't all that challenging, and most all of it anymore is ceremonial. There is also a 33rd degree, which is an honorary title conferred upon those that have proven themselves worthy.

Nice find !
