Dumb question... What are these pins "coated" with anyway? I assume it's just paper underneath a varnish or plastic coating of some kind? Is there a word for the glossy surface material?

It certainly isn't all vintage pins, but many of the early to mid 1970's pins have a hard clear plastic cover and the paper photo underneath is very thin and waxy feeling. I'm curious myself how the pins that don't have the clear plastic cover are made but I haven't taken one of them apart yet.
