Authentic or not HMs...new to this, please help!
Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me authenticate some HM pins I have come across:
PIN 58999 WDW - HIDDEN MICKEY 2007 SERIES 2 - FAST PASS SERIES - EXPEDITION EVEREST
http://www.pinpics.com/pin.php?pin=58999
What makes me nervous is that it feels a little thin and the back description doesn't match what is on www.pinpics.com for it. There is says back will have "made in china" while mine only has "china."
I am also nervous as it is responds immediately to a magnet and I think I remember reading somewhere that that is a sign of a fake/scrapper.
If anyone has one that they know is real can they investigate these two questions?
PIN 102252 WDW - 2014 HIDDEN MICKEY SERIES - UP HOT AIR BALLOONS - DUG
http://pinpics.com/pin.php?pin=102252
I want to believe this one is real, but am new to pins and HM makes me super cautious, especially as I traded for this one off of a CM lanyard which I am now learning are notorious for fakes/scrappers and the stamps on the back are off-centered.
Any help that could be given would be greatly appreciated!
Best,
