WTF – $ 2000 Hat Pin

Knowledge is Power

I was reviewing completed auctions on eBay, and came across the item below, a BSA hat pin that went for over $ 2200:

Normally for these posts, I try to do a bit of research, to determine what the items is and why it would sell for the sum it went for.

But on this one I have no idea, Can anyone explain what this pin was issued for and why it went so high?

There were 4 bidders over $ 1200.00, so someone knows what it is and what its worth.
