Made a second trip tonight where I picked up the 48 large cent. I found a few less targets this round. Still pulled some awesome relics. The silver rosette is in great condition and is inlaid with lead. The eagle is over crossed swords and has a Aug. 24 86 pat. date. I was able to identify it on: Fraternal Anderson Militaria Military Antiques Americana
The 2" pendant is missing, I will need to return to locate, fingers crossed.
"KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN EAGLE
1 FRGE - BADGE OF THE KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN EAGLE C.1900 Established 1873. Their principle tenets were "Fidelity, Valor, Honor". It is currently active, though considerably downsized from its days of glory. It is a beneficial, semi-military secret society that founded its ritual and ceremonies on the history and pageantry of crusaders of old. The badge is two piece, plus red ribbon backing. Top decorative bar is heavy brass with spread eagle over crossed swords. Reverse has long, heavy stick pin. Patent date of 1886 on rear. Pendant hangs on hook affixed to top bar. Pendant is 2" in diameter, with convex face. Has lodge name on front, a wreath and scene of Crusader being given a crown by a winged female figure."
