Prototype pin vs regular pin
OK, here is my dilemma. I think I have pin #9939 Disney Auctions - Alice in Wonderland 50th Ann. Series ( Cheshire Cat ) Silver Prototype which is a silver prototype of the regular Pin 6138: Disney Auctions - Alice in Wonderland 50th Ann. Series (Cheshire Cat). Back in my early days, someone told me all the back of this series HAD TO BE GOLD or they were fakes. Then I learned about Artist Proof and Prototypes. Do ALL prototype have to have P or PT or anything on the back? My pin is silver and while I kept it, I also got the regular pin (gold) because I wasn't sure my pin was "real" based on what someone told me on Dizpins. So now I have TWO pins.
Can someone help me authenticate my prototype pin so I know if I should keep it or trash it. I know absolutely nothing about them, don't collect them, don't want them, don't need them, know some people love them. Extent of knowledge.
Thanks for all the help you guys are going to give me.
