Enamel pin production is a long & meticulous process with many steps requiring hand done work. With this comes the possibility of small defects in a small percentage of the final batch.

• A Grade: Minimal flaws, if any. Free of any major defects but may have tiny flaws that can only be seen upon extremely meticulous examination.

• B Grade: Usually have one or more small but noticeable defects such as scratches, pin pricks, misprints, etc. These are good for budget collectors since they will always be on sale at a discounted price.

In-hand drops along with pre-order pins will always be A grade.
