We're cheap...
APO's tradition of using (to quote my wife) "cheap crap" as for our pins goes back to at least prior to WWII. I'm not sure relative to inflation how much we've gone up or down, but as best as I can tell, our service pins have run about as much as a big fast food meal for most of our history. And while the Pledge pins have been somewhat different (apparently *really* early in our history (pre 1932?) they were shields split into two colored halves).
Oddly enough I don't own anything APO which is jeweled. The main things that I've paid money for on Ebay have been things like Brotherhood certificates from the 1950s, patches and pins from Alpha Phi Omega groups that aren't us...
