Don Bible Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 Can anyone tell me is the small pin to the right of this picture is Masonic? It was brought back from Germany by a WWII veteran along with the other pins. Thanks
Don Bible Posted March 8, 2008 Author Posted March 8, 2008 CORRECTION: The pin in question is to the far left.Thanks. Don

paul wood Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 The inscription is in classical Greek and means pledge or surety but no way is it masonic more likely to be a student fraternity.Paul

It is good to know what the language is, and what it means. It is still a mystery why it was found with the German pins in the veteran's belongings.Don
