A $40,000+ Merit Badge…Are you kidding me!
Well this one is technically a “proficiency badge” but I believe that is the UK equivalent of our USA merit badges. This one has to have a back story which I wish I knew. If Anybody out there knows the history on this badge please post a response.
1934-37 UK Scout Proficiency Badge Oarsman $43,822 (US dollars)
By the way in case you are wondering I checked and according to feedback left the buyer did pay and the seller left positive feedback and in fact complimented the buyer for paying very quickly.:eek:
POST SCRIPT: I WAS NOT ABLE TO PORT OVER THE IMAGE OF THIS PATCH FROM APRIL 2007. IF ANYONE HAS AN IMAGE OF THE PATCH MENTIONED HERE PLEASE SEND IT TO ME SO I CAN ADD IT FOR CONTEXT.

I started collecting Boy Scout memorabilia when I was inducted into Santee Lodge 116, Order of the Arrow at Camp Coker in the summer of 1986. All the guys of ISWA chapter in Elk campsite seemed to be trading and since my dad sent me to camp with a small bag of patches, I jumped in and never looked back....
