Scouts Honor

[jt70]

Spent an hour or so at the "old Church Site" again this morning. Found this Boy scouts watch fob an a couple of 1917 wheat pennies in the same hole. There was also the remains of a little leather pouch that i bet the stuff was stored in.

Good luck to you!

Nice!

I'd do a little checking into the FOB,

it may be a rare piece, and worth a few $$

I found this image on a Boy Scout memorabilia Museum 1910 - 1916 web-site. It has a caption that reads " Boy Scouts watch fob, early 1910's" I also found one that sold on ebay for $20 but the seller did not talk it up at all and obviously had no Idea what it was.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone.

That's a great find, JT.? It's a collector's item in two areas...people who collect Boy Scout memoribilia and watch fob collectors.? That will make it more desirable.
