Anyone have a good method of repairing a loose pin post without comprimising the value of the pin? Any help would be appreciated

Thanks!
 
This just happened to me too! I was rearranging Pluto pins and went to lift one off of my cork board and the pin back stayed in the cork! I have always been hesitant in repairing a nice pin with glue, but I feel like I have no other option. It sure is a bummer, but it is a lesson learned as far as how careful I need to be when rearranging.
 
My wifes Jessica rabbit ID pin did that but it happen when we put locks on the back but we don't know where the piece is at so I'm thinking of getting a pin we don't like and take it to a jewelry shop and have it fixed. Maybe they can take the end of the other pin. I hope it can be done
 
I have a friend which does jewelry repair, and she does a fine job at repairing them. Look around in your area for a local jewelry repair place if you want it done right.

Glue sticks and Krazy Glue are just so...pardon the pun...Mickey Mouse.
