Hello,
Your P2s look fine they are in nice shape but if you do continue to buy always try and get them with the back papers.
Your ted williams is a repro pin. The repros are very blurry and the backs are very shiny. The real ones are more in focus and the back is more oval with a very small circle in the back center. The edge also gets very black as it comes to the curl of the pin and doesnt have the graphics like the real ones,you can see that on my repro and yours.
Good news are they are very common for a real one and they tend to run about 10-20 bucks.. Keep collecting!!!
I put up 2 scans for you repro on right. Backs are a little hard to see but when you have them side by side you can see the difference..
Also putting up these 2 Ted Williams if you ever buy one. Repro on the right. This one is a little easier as the repro his name goes all the way up his shoulder the original has a space. Many people make the mistake when they buy this pin!!
