Thanks for the info. I've looked online and can't find this pin. I don't know if it is lapel pin or what era. Any info would be appreciated. Boy I was way off.

Thanks,

i would say it's from the 1920's-1930's.

"the eagle is a symbol of strength and victory and the shield on the eagle's breast signifies self-reliance. In his talons, he clutches on his right an oliver branch, the symbol of peace and on his left a shaft of arrows, the symbol of might. The eagle faces right, which is the position of honor, looking toward the symbol of peace. The eagle and shield within the trefoil signify that Girl Scouts stand ready to serve their country." The shape of the pin, a trefoil, indicates the threefold promise.
