That is really pretty...the diamond in the place of a pearl is interesting...perhaps it is something the original owner had set in place of one of the pearls.

Probably one of pearls came out, and it was replaced with a diamond (easier than trying to match the color of pearl)

That or her SO told her "I'll put a diamond in your badge for each child that we have...."
Oh, wait, that is just me wishfully thinking....

or maybe she was a Diamond Jubliee Recipient....??? I know when I had two pearls replaced on my great-grandmother's badge from 1924, it was so hard to find pearls that were in the same color of the original pearls...

I'm very jealous of the new owner of that badge. I've just never seen anything like it before. Congrats.

Why is this new item on ebay? Makes me sad. Such a priviledge to have.

FYI again, plaztik says he is a parent of an AOII(I emailed him one time)...if so, why does he bid on other badges? He couldn't possibly have that many kids.

Note to self: Just because the picture is enlarged, does not necessarily mean that the object is enlarged.
I thought that the pledge pin was something else. Thank goodness I was set straight. This has been a crazy week. From finding out that my dog isn't able to eat well and my daughter dislocating her thumb every five minutes - I need a calgon (sp?)moment!

Guess it goes to show that we'll never know what we'll find on ebay?
Poor puppy Hope that DD's thumb gets better soon, that's no fun.
Roses,

AOII Pin
Just wanted all the AOII's to know that I have "rescued" a badge from Ebay. I purchased a pearl badge from a book collector who found some pins in a hollowed out book in an estate sale. I am so proud to own this beautiful symbol of our sisterhood.
Roses,
