Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>James- I once put together this set and never found a single fake or replica out there. That doesn't mean they don't exist, but I never ran across one then or lately. I thought PSA was all over the board on its grading of the pins and also the Domino Discs and was never able to figure out what made one a 7 and one a 4. I might disagree with their card grading but generally had a basic knowledge of what was what. Pins and discs- no clue.<br>tbob

Posted By: <b>Red</b><p>Obviously they look at everything like that when it comes to evaluating the condition. When they see something wrong like a scratch, rust, or damage to the paper insert, then it's a bit of a guess on how it will be factored into the overall grade. It's easiest to grade and agree with condition on near perfect pins. Never seen or heard of a reprinted pin.
