Some weeks ago, you showed a commemorative coin about Boy Scouts and it showed a woman. Where is the man on the Girl Scouts coin?

That was a problem. I heard that both Scouts are one now. Politically correct times...

No, they are not combined actually. It is just Boy Scouts of American (BSA) started to accept girls into their programs and changed their name to Scouts BSA. Girl Scouts remain a separate organization in the US, and I think is suing BSA for the use of the generic 'Scout' name.
Very nice!! I'd love to get one for my daughter.
They are very easy to find and the price for an ungraded one is around $30.

Where are the cookies mate, Lol. Nice looking coin, cheers.
Here in Brazil the Bandeirantes (Girl Scouts) do not sell cookies. At least I never saw them doing it.
