Posted By: <b>Al Simeone</b><p>Hi Josh,<br />Very hard to identify the players in that set. Put out in 1910 they are all the Champion Pittsburgh Pirates. There are 12 pins in the set the most expensive being Wagner(thats not Wagner) Yours looks to be in nice condition all the rest of the 11 range from 135in vg to 450 in Nrmt. Yours looks to be a solid exmt and probably will value around 275-400. Nice item good luck with it.

Posted By: <b>Joe Jones</b><p>Wow that pin is Great! Definatly great condition for the issue. I had an Adams that I sold a while back somewhere in between $200 to $300 if I remember correctly? It was pretty beat up with cracks.<br /><br />Looks like a kid to me?
