Default Re: Question on 1910-12 Sweet Caporal pins

I would respectfully disagree with Aaron's assesment on both counts. The fronts do indeed look great, but P2s, like S74 white silks, should be considered incomplete without the paper backing. I also think the rust or corrosion damage does materially affect the value. Another common problem, which yours do not exhibit, is brown foxing on the celluloid fronts. Nice examples from an interesting set. Enjoy them, regardless of value.
