I suppose it is too much to hope for that this be authentic?

Hi Doug, what are the letters in the middle? VOG, VAG?

Maybe: VDG "Vereinigten Deutschen Gesellschaften" ...

What is it though?

I think it is what in German is called "Treffenabzeicen" (Meeting badge) or "Tagungsabzeichen" (Conference badge), to commemorate the meeting in New York on the "Deutscher Tag" (German Day) in 1935.

VDG was one of many German-American organizations in USA.
