Silver Cub Scout Ring

[Hunk-a-lead]

Recent outing(s) netted a vintage silver Cub Scout ring (1938), a very cool dog tag, costume jewelry, a hem weight, a smashed penny and a thimble!

Check out the live digs on my YouTube Channel, "Hi Ho Silver":

As always, thanks for peeking at my goodies and HH😊

Cool find. I was in the cub scouts when I was in grade school. I enjoyed it but me and the other boys were never awarded the patches we had earned so we all quit.

What was that all about really, we worked at the task, achieved it, never rewarded. We did the same, and quit also.

I have the ring somewhere stashed away. I made it to Star in the Boy Scouts then got too interested...well, into other things.

Found one of those silver Cub Scout rings about 15 years ago. Didn't know the age, but looks just like yours.

I probably got mine around 1975-76 or so. I believe they started in the 1940s. Also, I'm not sure how many variations existed. Still a cool find though.

I think in our case, we had two "den mothers" and the dues money collected ended up going for other things and never got replaced or earmarked for the award patches for our uniform shirts. Kinda sad really, I would have liked to continue on

That's a rockin' ring and I got kicked out of the scouts the first day when I stepped out back to have a smoke. 🚬
