ENAMEL PINS
A Grades
These pins are almost perfect and I say almost because they are handmade and there is no such thing as a perfect pin, but they are the best of the batch.
- Small scratches or scuffs on the metal or enamel, barely noticeable.
- Minor imperfections in metal plating, barely noticeable.
- Slightly noticeable specks/dot or darkened specks in glitter areas on pins with glitter, this is expected variation in glitter pins.
- Faint/light and small dot or small smudge on enamel, barely noticeable
B Grades
These pins come with little flaws.
- Superficial bubbles/speckles/pores on enamel
- Slightly underfill, overfill, or uneven fill of enamel that only noticeable at a certain angle/lighting
- Scruffs on the side or back of pin (NOT the front)
- Slightly misaligned screenprinting
C Grades
These pins come with more noticeable flaws than A and B, and will be sold at a discount. They may contain at least one or more of the following:
- Intermediate and noticeable black dot, small smudge, or bubble on enamel
- Some area of missing plating and/or deep scratches on the metal across the pin
- More noticeable underfill, overfill, or uneven fill of enamel
- Very misaligned or missing screenprinting in pins that have screenprint
Seconds
These pins come with major flaws that I rather give them a home than simply tossing them away. They are sold at a large discount.
