Unknown Boy Scout Pin

[MilitariaCollector]

I aquired this pin recently, and dont know much about it. I've seen similiar pins which are all gold color, but none that are green. Can anyone tell me what exactly this is, how old it is, and what is it worth? Thanks!

It looks similar to the Assistant Scoutmaster pins used between 1920-38.
It can be found just before the halfway mark of this document:

Thanks for posting that link Seekinginfo....it helps me indentify some Scout items I recovered from my folks home a few yrs ago. My dad joined the Scouts in 1915 in Chicago. I have MANY Scout items I'm trying to indentify...a Scout hat, bugle, pins, pictures, a compass (made in Paris) and (2) 4 card sets of Scout rules with various pictures with the Morse code and flagging info. I believe he was active from 1915 to the early 1950s. I offered to set up a display at the central Minnesota's office (A large new bldg) located near St Cloud, and the 'powers that be' said that they didn't have any room for the display. No room for 95 yr old Scout memorabelia? Hmmm.

Scout memorabilia is highly collectable in the US. My grandmother was a leader in Canada. I donated many things to the scouts here, but there is no market for the Canadian items. I have some great links for finding information and values for American items on my other computer. I'll pop them up for you on the week-end.
