Diogenes Club of Washington, DC Issues Challenge Coin

“It is for the convenience of these that the Diogenes Club was started …”

– The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter (GREE)

The Diogenes Club of Washington, DC is one of the newer scions of the Baker Street Irregulars, having been founded just a few months after our own group was formed in 2014. Organized by the 36th Garrideb, Michael J. Quigley, who holds the investiture of “Lord Saltire,” he was inspired to create a challenge coin for his group after he purchased one of the challenge coins that The Fourth Garrideb issued in 2015.
