The pin looks like American Legion or Lions Club.

I agree Pin looks like a Club pin.

Congrats on your first Mercury

Mercury or Roosevelt?

Jokes on me. Turns out its a 1 Escudo from Portugal. The 1 under the grime looked like the torch of a merc. Shoot.

That's a Roosevelt dime, congrats on your first...

Looking at the Girl scouts logo the pin has the same shape as their logo but I didn't see any matches for that. Not the outer part of the pin but the inner part of the pin is where I see the resemblance to the G.S.A. logo.
