This is a great circa 1900 New Orleans Police Special Officer Badge. This is basically the equivalent of a "Special Police" badge. This is an early style nickel plated nickel badge with a one piece pin. It's a simple circle star badge, but has a great look to it.
More ornate examples of this badge, soe in silver and even gold, are more "Honorary", "Juice", or Presentation badges.
