    Consignment store kilt pin find

    While killing some time waiting for an appointment today, I walked into a consignment store, and discovered the below three pins..... The lady sold all three of them for $10.00...............

    I really didn't think she knew what they were until I pointed out a similar one on my kilt!

    Lucky me!

    Interesting and good find. They seem rather small as compared to the shown sett, could make an interesting lapel pin if they are. Oh, and watch out I think the pin on the right is one of those secretive take-over-the-world-and-make-them-all-wear-kilts sort of Masonic symbols.

    The other two look like Sutherlands (stag) and Cameron (saltire). Very good find indeed.
