Pin Grading Scale
We understand that pin grading is subjective, so please read our pin grading scale before purchasing from our shop. We currently do not offer perfect/collector grade pins but we will do our best to send out the best pins possible! If there is any issue with your pin, please send us photos and an explanation of the problem to sumlilthings@gmail.com when you receive your order.
STANDARD GRADE
Pins are the best grade we offer, perfect of displaying and wearing! There may be some "minor" imperfections such as:
- Faint marks and scratches on the metal or enamel surface
- Faint specks/dust, dots or bubbles on the enamel
- Slightly uneven (under or over) fills
- Other faint blemishes that are only visible upon close inspection or looking at it at a certain angle
- Minor discoloration on the enamel and metal
SECONDS GRADE
Pins are in good condition but may have more noticeable imperfections such as:
- Marking or more noticeable scratches on the metal or enamel surface
- Oxidization of the metal
- More noticeable under or over fills
- Chipped metal plating
- Uneven texture or polish on enamel or metal
