Pins and Alpha Phi Omega...

I've corrected several people who've labeled the keys with Alpha Omega Omicron as Alpha Phi Omega. I haven't been sure which group it is though. From what's been said, I presume the key with Alpha Omega Omicron is KKG?

Also, not all Greek Letter Organizations react the same. I'm a member of the National Alpha Phi Omega History and Archives committee and while I'd want the Fraternity to have examples of all of versions of the pin that we've had, I've never met anyone in APO as devoted to purchasing them as some NPC and NPHC sorority sisters.

Both the pledge pin and the brotherhood pin for Alpha Phi Omega are $5 (and have been at approximately equivalent prices relative to inflation since WWII). These pins are made of brass (so anyone who tries to sell the standard brotherhood pins as 10k gold is full of it. We do have jewelry that is more ornate versions of the pin that are significantly more expensive (up to $200) though. (Examples for both are visible in store on the APO website, but proof of membership is required for purchase from the website.)
