So someone local to me is selling pins and offered these to me. $350.

Is there anything here you see that I should be worried about? I’ve done some research so far and they look to be good pins. The mali with the jewels is throwing me off as the jewels are a different color than what I’m seeing online. Is there anything else anyone sees that I should be paying better attention to? Fakes? Anything that would be a fantastic find?

I appreciate everyone’s help as I’m still learning!

In general/as a whole nothing is calling out to me to avoid this lot. There may be a few fakes/scrap (maybe Mickey sitting in pink, Stitch as yoda), but the lot does not seem to scream 'avoid'. 6.03/pin probably isn't great, but not bad. Perhaps an average price.

Thinking most are OEs, maybe some LRs...

The jeweled Maleficent... I know absolutely nothing about this pin. Would have to research.
 

I appreciate that.

I’m going to try and grab it around $5 a pin or so as I feel that’s a relatively fair offer just in case. But want to do more research before I make the offer.

Thanks!

I'd be REALLY careful with the Hidden Mickey pins (10-12?)!! Unless they can assure you they are from their collection that they acquired when first released, they have ALL been faked.

In general, NO ONE has legitimate older Hidden Mickey pins unless acquired from a collection/collector. ANY older HM pins in general circulation now (on Park Boards or Cast Lanyards) are, most likely, FAKE.
