What do you considered the grail of grails in your collections? The story behind the pin is always a fascination.

It's a presentation badge given to the Director of Security at the Disneyland Hotel, in 1974. This is the only one ever made.

Mine would have to be Pin 2939 Maleficent Boxed Diva Event Gift because it was soooooo hard to get!!

Not sure if this counts since when I got it I had no concept of grails and whatnot, but I know there aren't a lot of pins of her, and it's probably one of the prettiest princess pins out there. So this one:

As you can see, I also have the newest Tangled designer, as well as Elsa and Ariel from that set, but they weren't grails, not to me at least, but they might be for others. Otherwise I haven't gotten any of my grails.
 
My "grail of all grails" in my collection is the first pin that I ever said, "If I could only own one pin, it would be that one." I was lucky enough to get him before his price skyrocketed - although I still spent more on him than I ever thought I would EVER spend on a pin. Here he is:

I have hope that one day I'll own Little Ellie but Little Carl is my very very favorite and is the "grail of all grails" in my collection. :)

Runners up are these two:

This was the pin that got away, over and over again. But I got it! Russell is dear to my heart and so is Dug. (And Up pins had started to get really pricey so this is the pin I spent the most $$ on.) But it was worth it to me because I love this pin. :)

And finally:
pin86668th200

I just love little Lottie and Tiana. Again, I got this one before the price of it went through the roof. I love it so much.

I have other grails in my collection but these are my favorite. :)
