Anyone collect PM10 pins?

Wondo

I just received an auction lot that I won and there are a couple of PM10s that I don't need. I bought the lot for the P2s and boxing pins. Anybody know anything about these or can you direct me. I have a Krause, and the prices seem awfully high.

Do you have any pictures? I've never seen a PM10.

Chris,

I have to scan some. I won the lot in the OLd Judge auction, but I can't get to it to post. I'll put some up a little later.

I have a few PM10 pins - I also have the DiMaggio.

There are variations to the pin - and the common will go for a lot less than the rarer variation(s).

I think ebay is a better gauge of the value of these pins than the price guide IMO.

edit:

for those who would like a bit more info:

The PM10s came in essentially 3 different sizes - approximately 1 3/4", 2" and 2 1/4".

Since these were designed as souvenirs - they were mostly sold at the ball park.

The variations are immense for some players - in the 1 3/4" e.g., there are 9 variations to the mantle!
I went back to a guide from 1988 - and they listed the variations anywhere from 125$ to 15$ and only listed 7.

The new guide has a value from 150 - 1750$!!! - so with those values - look out for fakes!!!

The variation above is valued at 275$ - I paid somewhere in the 25 buck range and thought it was too much! Then again that was a long while back - probably around 1992?
