Robert,
This little beauty is from the Bund-K�nigin-Luise. (BKL)
(League of Queen Luise)
It was a women's nationalistic/monarchistic/conservative organization, counterpart to the men's Stahlhelm movement and sanctioned by the royal House of Hohenzollern, in Prussia.
Their main goals were to re-establish Germany's old territories and colonies and to remove the yoke of the Versailles Treaty. The group was founded in 1923 and lasted until 1934, under the direction of Kronprinzessin Cecilie von Preu�en.
Your's is the first style "Honor Pin," valued at around $75-100 dollars, though, with the actual pin missing, considerably less.
Best!
Bill
