Question about Pin Trading Night Pins

[kidup]

Hey guys,
I don't know how many of you could help me out, as I don't know who has the Stitch PTN pin. I was looking at the 4 Ptn pins that I have and noticed that the color of the Stitch is more of a yellow color than a golden color. Here is a picture:

I was looking through the pictures of the ones previously sold and they all seem to be more of a yellow color. The pin itself is a little thicker as well. Any help would be appreciated
Thanks guys.

I know my Rapunzel PTN pin is that same yellow color as your Stitch, and I believe someone else commented on the yellow coloring vs the gold. I think it might just be something that varies with each PTN pin - but don't quote me on that :lol:

That's normal. Jimmy, Tinker, and Stitch are also a lower LE than all the others.

Thank you Lunar Thank you Erica. I really do appreciate the help I can always count on this forum.

That's correct no worries about that you'll get that alot in PTN pins paris ones anyway,

We have all of the earlier Paris PTN pins. The first 3 are all more yellow then the rest of the "golden" ribbon pins(minus the Maleficent pin trading day pin). We do not have the last 8, or so, so I can not speak about them. All of ours are still on original card (minus 1, I think) and were bought when they came out so I know they are legit.

My wife and I are in the parks once or twice a week, and we keep our eyes open for all kinds of scrappers. We even compiled this pamphlet on it with the help of a lot of people here on DPF that we hand out to new traders: http://disneypinforum.com/showthread.php?1591-Check-this-pamphlet-out-suggest-changes-edits-etc.-UPDATED-WITH-LINKS!!!

Our experience has been that pin-on-pin pins such as the one in question are rarely if ever faked. There is too much metal involved when they could just make two or three simple flat cheap hidden mickeys instead; multiple layer pins like that just are not cost effective for China fakers to make. Its the same with any pin that is lenticular, or glow in the dark, or dangle pins, etc.
