In gilded silver with red, white and blue enamels, with a red cross overlay with two busts surrounded by a wreath, reverse bearing inscription “Steadfast for God and Country”, measuring at 16.2mm (w) x 21.0mm (h) and weighing at 5.4 grams; reverse inscription with some fading, on period ribbon in extremely fine condition; accompanied by three miniature boutineers. 

Footnote: The Order of the Founders and Patriots of America (OFPA) is a highly restrictive, United States-based, hereditary fraternal organization whose self-declared purpose is to collect and preserve records related to the original American colonists and their descendants, and to promote camaraderie among descendants of original colonists. Its strict bloodline mandates and small size (currently slightly more than 1,000 members), has earned it a reputation as the most exclusive lineage society in the United States.
