I have 2 versions of this pin, one with white lettering and one with yellow lettering, and I'm wondering which one (if any) is authentic. In the Pinpics photo, the lettering looks like a very pale yellow, but it's difficult to be sure because the photo may not be true to colour. Does anyone have a pin that they know to be authentic? I'm including a photo of both my pins. The bottom one (with yellow lettering) seems to be better quality, but the yellow is quite a bit darker than the lettering in the Pinpics photo.

I have that pin as well, but I traded for it. I believe it's supposed to either glow in the dark or represent that look. So, the yellow one is the most accurate one.
 
Is it just the photo or is the bottom one bigger as well? The black border also looks thicker.

They're the same size. The overall border is the same size in both pins BUT the silver outlines are thicker in the top pin, so that the black portion of the border is slighter thicker in the bottom pin.
 
Just checked mine and it looks exactly the same as the one on Pinpics. So, unless they did multiple runs of this pin they may both be fake. Can you post pics of the backs?
 
Here is the problem. They both could be legit. They are from a booster set and as such they can keep re issuing them. Very possible they are from different lots.
