New Trader PD71378 DSF - Happy New Year

[HDPins]

Hello. I am pretty new to trading and picked up this pin recently in a trade. I noticed the the DSF ice cream cones on the back of the pin do not extend to the edge. I know that this can be a sign of a scrapper when the mickey ears don't extend to the edge on other pins. So I was wondering if maybe this pin is a fake or scrapper. Does anyone have this pin and could confirm that the cones don't go to the edge or do. Just want to know if my pin is authentic or fake. Thanks

Looks good to me... The DSF/GSF pins go back and forth with the ice cream cones being molded to the shape (like yours), or going all the way to the edge and being cut off... I think it just depends on the company that makes the pin.

Examples:
Wreck-it-Ralph train released a week ago is like yours:

This pin from August has the cones going to the edge:

The way yours is seems to be the more common way, but they do both. Nothing about the pin looks off to me.

Looks fine to me, I also have some DSF pins where the cones are like yours, and they are legit.

Lately DSF pins have borders like that, I don't think it's a 100% legit way to tell scrappers and real pins apart anymore tbh. But I don't know much about scrappers. If I compare that one to my other DSF pins, it looks fine.

Thanks everyone! I'm glad to get confirmation that it is real.
