Scientology Patron Pin - Gold

[WilliamBoyd]

While I was walking around town, I saw this item laying on the street next to the sidewalk.
It looked like a US penny, but gold colored, 19mm diameter.

It turned out to be a Scientology Patron lapel pin.

The front says:
"INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SCIENTOLOGISTS" / "PATRON"
The back has a flattened pin and "18KT"

I looked it up on the internet and apparently one gets the pin for donating money to the group.

Not something one finds every day.

Very cool find. I'm not sure it's Tom Cruise's though? You found it on a sidewalk. If it were his, it would have come out of a closet.
Could be John Travoltas?

[ohannos]

Could have been tossed by a disgruntled "patron" of one of the cult meetings, or tossed for expensive advertisement, kinda like the WatchTower mags you find in public laundramats and urinals in the bad part of town which is cheap advertisement.

I assumed that it was gold plated.
