    Everyone who is a Boy Scout or was
    These I think will be the center piece of many collections
    to receive the Coin Collecting Merit Badge
    My guess these will be snapped up by Den Leaders
    and parents for their Scout children
    If they limit production it could get very interesting
    Just My 2 Cents

    I have heard that same sentiment from a great number of people ever since the announcement that the Mint was going to put them out. A lot from people that do not even collect coins.:whistle:

    The commemorative coins were authorized by Congress long before the shortage of ASE blanks.

    Yes, I will buy one.

    Agreed, I really don't like how the boy scouts basically demanded that the coin have a girl on it to represent the venturing program. I was a boy scout, but I'm going to pass on the coin. I'll continue to support the scouts by direct donations to the local troops and buying popcorn and stuff like that.

    I'll pick up both the Unc and the Proof, great present for my Eagle Scout son-in-law. This may be the earliest I have ever bought a Christmas present. :D

    Not really sure:confused:... probably just 2 of the proof versions...

    The Mint says 350,000 of these. Would the ratio be about 2 to 1 in favor of the proofs ?

    Sell out ??? :bigeyes:

    I am an Eagle Scout so I will get several. 1 proof for my self and 3 unc for kids. The unc will be good eagle scout presents for my kids in the future?
