Collectible pins

[flutesk8r]

Hi Everyone - I am new. I am trying to find out if anyone is interested in collecting skating pins. I have 2 shoeboxes full of collectible pins that I inherited. I'm not sure what to do with them or who to turn to for information. Any ideas?
thanks so much!

Don't throw them out before proper advice and evaluation. Pins are out of fashion in these days of smartphones and digital rewards. But a real collector of these memorabilia might offer some good money for your collection if you know its value.

You probably have to go through both shoe boxes, anything plastic is less valuable than cast, stamped or etched and enamelled metal.
