Kate, our chapter president had a opal badge and it was simply
beautiful! I understand that there is an EO who has a collection of different pins, and I would LOVE to see a poster made of it! I have three different pins myself, and I've seen dozens of other combinations - one "art deco" one just sold on ebay today to an EO! It was the "poverty badge" but with pearl points - terribly chic!

edited to add: I've never heard the plain pin referred to as the "poverty badge" before - kinda cute, in a way!
