While I was at Disneyland with my sister a few weeks ago, she decided to start collecting the Hidden Mickey Duffy's Hat pins. I had a fair amount of them in my traders, and she found a few more out on the lanyards (including some rather obvious fakes).

She's only missing four (make that two) pins now (listed below).

None of these pins have a scrapper (counterfeit) warning on Pinpics, but I wanted to know if anybody knows if these particular pins have been counterfeited before I send her to eBay to buy them.

On the other hand, if somebody wants to trade with me or sell them at a decent price, please PM me. I have the following newer HM for trade.

Thanks in advance for any information any of you can provide.

They don't have scrapper warnings because Pinpics has stopped doing them, or because nobody has bothered. They've definitely been scrapped. And just as a rule of thumb, I always assume HMs will be scrapped...it's just easier for the sellers in China to get their hands on them.
 
Do we know if these four specific pins have been counterfeited? I've looked at the other pins from that series that my sister has, but I'd hate to have her buy these off of eBay if they've been faked. Has anybody seen fake versions of these four pins?
 
I'm no expert on what China is selling but I don't think the bottom 3 have been scrappered. I'm local, so I'm always in the parks and it's my mission to look at every lanyard I can, so I see a lot of CM lanyards. Some pins you see over and over again, those I figure are scrappers. The ones from DLR I have never seen on a lanyard and the hardhat one I've seen very rarely and only when it was first out.
 
UPDATE

Thanks to a couple of great DPFers here, I was able to get the Adventureland Duffy and the Fireman Duffy for my sister. Anybody got the Sailor or Construction Worker Duffy for trade?
