The picture below shows a larger view of all (11) Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Lodge Fraternal Organization Membership Pins and Charm in this lot. This lot includes one charm and (10) various Membership pins. These are not dated and the years that they were made are unknown. These are made of a gold colored metal, but they are not marked, and none have been tested for gold. All but one of these (Heart Pin) has the Elk head and 11th hour clock emblem. (2) have a clear stone at the top. One has a screw back. They are marked ''B.P.O.E.'' and (3) have a banner at the bottom. These read: ''25 YEARS'', ''TRUSTEE'', and ''LIFE MEMBER''. All of these for one price! To judge the sizes the tiny upper left charm bracelet charm measures 3/8'' x 5/8''. These appear to be in near mint or mint condition as pictured.

Below here, for reference is a little additional information about the Elks:

Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks
The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE; also often known as the Elks Lodge or simply The Elks) is an American fraternal order and social club founded in 1868. It is one of the leading fraternal orders in the United States, claiming nearly one million members.

History
The Elks had modest beginnings in 1868 as a social club for minstrel show performers, called the ''Jolly Corks''. It was established as a private club to elude New York City laws governing the opening hours of public taverns. After the death of a member left his wife and children without income, the club took up additional service roles, rituals and a new name. Desiring to adopt ''a readily identifiable creature of stature, indigenous to America'', fifteen members voted 8 – 7 in favor of the elk above the buffalo. Early members were mostly from theatrical performing troupes in New York City. It has since evolved into a major American fraternal, charitable, and service order with more than a million members, both men and women, throughout the United States and the former territories of the Philippines and the Panama Canal.
