[QUOTE="cwtokenman, post: 747850, member: 2100"]I am a collector of Scouting exonumia. I concentrate mostly on the Excelsior Shoe Company tokens, but I do have a hodge podge of other Scouting items. Values are from my 1995 reference on Scouting exonumia. The 1st token (Scout Oath) I could not find an exact match for this one, but I will check later as it is almost 4am and I need some sleep. I found both dies, but not both on the same token. The 2nd (diamond shaped) token is known as a Cub Scout Pocket piece. id is 1972 (18a), R1 value rating $2 in F/VF, $3 in XF. There is another variety without a comma after PEOPLE on the reverse. The 3rd (BSA Vote Campaign) Medallion was made by Freedom's Foundation, Inc., Valley Forge, Pa. There are two basic varieties (plus die trial pieces for each). The silver colored plastic was given to each Scout that participated in the campaign while the gold colored ones were given to the Scout leaders. The id is 1952 1(b), and is somewhat scarce with an R6 value rating - $15 in ave. circ., $20 F/VF, $25 XF.[/QUOTE]
