VINTAGE Beta Theta Pi fraternity 10K gold member pin badge, 1968 Tau chapter OLD

Description

Up for bid is a wonderful vintage pin from the
Beta Theta Pi
fraternity, which has diamond chip on the upper middle.  The badge is attached by chain to a Tau chapter (Wabash) guard pin.  Back side has the Tau chapter letter, a man's name and a
1968
date all engraved.  There is a diamond-shape engraved as well.  I also see a Balfour hallmark and the pin is marked as
10K gold
.  The guard pin is not marked but acid tests to be 10K gold as well.  This in excellent condition, with no damage or wear or missing stones.  Each pin has a working clasp, the main pin measures 5/8" tall and they combine to weigh
4.03 grams
.
A very nice addition to your Beta or vintage fraternity / sorority collection!  Please email with any questions and thanks for looking!!!
This pin was
not
