Hi, Do any of you great people know what this pin stands for? It came in a box with some Knights of Pythias pins but I don't know that it is from that origanization.

I give up if it goesn't work this time.

If nothing else, I can help with the image:




I can't make it any bigger, though.

Thanks, I thought I knew how to do it until I tried. Have seen instructions here often enough that seemed simple but guess I forgot an important something.

It may be from another fraternal organization oe even a college fraternity. If you place it in a fraternal organization category it would have the best chance.

Antique: Did you by any chance capitalize the name of your picture when you were loading them into vendio? I learned the hard way a while back that because I do that to all my pictures, when I try to post them here I need to do it - the link here is upper/lower case sensitive.

I believe it's the badge for the Knights of Khorassan, a Pythian auxilliary. This website describes the emblem as "a Tiger's face, to its left a waning crescent moon with three stars and behind it the shadow of the same, to the right of the Tiger are the initials D.O.K.K." The D.O.K.K. part doesn't match but the rest does. Maybe that was on a separate pin?

Here is one for sale on eBay.

As always, You Guys Are Great!!!! Thanks so much. I never seem to have the time for research since this is my 'second job'.

Maybe the different color eyes represents a certain level achieved in this organization.

That was amazing detective work by msincognito. I couldn't find anything.
