Well , it is a guaranteed 1921 badge and possibly one issued in the first month (or even week) , it has a three digit number 842 ! 
Approximately 18,100 members joined in 1921 and by 1928 there were roughly 220,000 members , so a nice addition to my collection.

Very nice Mike!
Always great when you get low number items of badges, etc. that would have been issued in their thousands.
