Awesome finds. Those ones do look older. You should post those to this Scout Finds thread.

Nice, where you find those old ones you also find silver. I have hit 4 old boy scout camps around me and have snagged silver in every one of them.
Thanks for posting and good luck! __________________ |

That's awesome. My son is a scout, and I'd LOVE to find one of those for him. Still waiting on a response to a permission request from an old boy scout camp near me.

Neat finds, especially that "onward" one. Never seen one like that.
