Interesting find, love to know the history too, but likely lost to time.

I believe it would be a convention ribbon. Convention ribbons were very popular in the early 1900's. I have a small collection myself.

the piece is in very nice shape for its age and i bet it has an interesting story to tell if it could talk. Thanks for sharing it with us .

That is an awesome relic you've found! I'm stumped on how it got to GA.

That is an incredible fob! I've never seen one like it. And it's now 100 years old!
