That's PinPics pin 12417. It's a Disney Auction LE 100.

LE 100 pins can fetch a high price, but the price depends upon the demand for that particular character or theme. From a quick search, I could not find a completed auction on eBay for this pin, so it would be difficult to assign a value. There are several eBay listings for this pin in the $145 range. I'm no expert, but I would be surprised if anybody bought this pin at this price.

Ultimately, its value is what somebody is willing to pay for it! My guess is that, since it is Mickey (which, amazingly, I find is not a particularly common collecting interest), and since it is specifically dated (which sometimes makes the pin less desirable), it would not fetch a particularly high price.

How's that for an ambiguous answer?!
 
Allow me to provide some perspective here. There is another pin from July 4, 2002 with Mickey on it. It is PinPics #13078. It is LE 3500, and originally sold for $10.50.

Just this July, this pin sold on eBay for $3.99, and only had one bidder!

That's an example of what can happen when pins aren't particularly desirable!
 
The number does not match with my pin.
I looked and its a pin of the same date, but the pin you gave (the number you gave) is not a limited edition.
There were only 250 pins made of this design? But can't find "any" sellers, who sells this pin.
Don't want to sell it, it's mine .
But want to know, how much it's worth !
 
Is this your pin? This is PinPics #12417, which I indicate in my first post. That's the pin I see in the link you provided. It is listed on PinPics as a Limited Edition of 100. What are looking at that indicates your pin is a LE 250? If this is not your pin below, then there is some confusion.


The following is PinPics #13078, which I reference in my second post. This is listed on PinPics as being a Limited Edition of 3500.
 
Mickey pins are not very popular (price wise). Good for Mickey collectors, bad for Mickey sellers.

Pins with dates are also not very popular, unless the date is special to someone who wants the pin (and not a holiday, unless this person got married, had a baby, etc. on that specific holiday)
