We have just received the following DLRP pin:

[pinpics]59038[/pinpics]

The back of the pin has everything listed on PinPics with the exception of the individual number...xxx/600.

Does anyone else have one to compare?
 
I have had this pin and traded it recently and absolutely remember showing the back as #128 of 600.
I remember this because we discussed what if you had #1 of 600 or 600 of 600. would it be worth more.
I believe it should have the number.

I have had many paris pins and a lot of the are numbered this way.
 
Can anyone show a picture of the back of this pin...with the numbers? I find it difficult to believe that this is a fake since it is pin on pin. I guess it could be a scrapper from the original lot and didn't get numbered. Any thoughts?
 
Hi Debby,

I traded for the entire set, #59034 on pinpics, right after the event. I have two sets of these, one for me, and one for trade. I just looked at all of them. Mickey, Stitch, and Donald, and all have a given number with /600 after it. But as listed on pinpics, each one of the pins associated with the set has a different number, so I wouldn't be surprised if they failed to number one pin, thus making it an error pin. By the way, DLP has a lot of pins with errors that are seen mostly on the back. Look here: http://pinpics.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?page=1&sid=6873.1308925041.v2

However, when I have seen Paris pins scrappered, they will put a number to go with it, and have many pins with the same number. However, your pin has no number at all, which is indicative of an error and not a scrapper. Errors are not all listed on pinpics. Take a look at what it says about the scrappers all numbered the same here:
Pin 67020: DLRP - Xmas Pin'Gerbread Event - Stitch

If the pin looks good and has no paint dips or paint overlapping, I would think it is a legit pin.
 
I have some of the Coundown to 15th Anniversary pins with Lumiere, same thing, xxx/900. Even if the factory makes duplicates of each number for quality purpose you would think they would all have numbers.
