The design looks like one of the first badges made by a local jeweler. Note that the Gamma is not "chased" (engraved) the way the standard badges are.
The eBay listing Q&A section says that the badge likely belonged to Cynthia Geer who was initiated into Alpha Chapter in 1958. How would she have gotten by without buying a standard badge? Might she have been a descendant of a founder or early member and have inherited a non-standard badge?
