fyimo Valued Member United States 245 Posts	Posted 04/08/2010 12:22 pm Well I received my Two Proof and 1 BU Boy Scout coins the other day and I will say the quality was very good and I think the design is so-so. Report this Post to the Staff
eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 04/20/2010 09:49 am There seems to be no "Hoopla" over these really in the marketplace. And I believe they are still for sale on the Mints website....so .....I guess no "HOT SELLOUT" is going to happen. But I still think that there is a potential for these to slowly rise in value through the years, once more Scouts (both old and new) become aware of them. I still think that a lot of Scout Masters would certainly get at least one of these, if they only were aware of them. Even if they have "zero" interest in coin collecting. I think there should be a MASSIVE EFFORT TO GET THE WORD OUT TO THEM ! Then maybe we'd create a little demand that would never go away ! .... Somebody should send out Flyiers and/or emails to EVERY SINGLE SCOUT ORGANIZATION IN THEIR STATE ! C'mon ! ......... LETS CREATE A PRARIE FIRE OF INTEREST HERE ! ............................ .............. Edited by eaglefoot 04/21/2010 09:14 am Report this Post to the Staff
Dvorak Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 1:40 pm I think the design on the obverse is really killing sales. No one wants to see a girl on a Boy Scout coin. Front should have been the boy scout logo, with the back being the rank badges. Eagle surrounded by the others Scout - Life. Kind of like this: http://www.bsa757.org/uploads/image...ut_ranks.gif Report this Post to the Staff
eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 04/21/2010 2:16 pm .....though it's meaning (with the girl) is clearly explained of course. I agree that the specific depiction showing "a girl" on an all male organization coin, kind of "furrows the brow" a bit. Especially with so much pride regarding that. But I still say that most people are not even aware that this coin is even available ! Report this Post to the Staff
