Here's a couple recent pick ups. I'm hoping someone can help me out with one of them. Is the Cubs pin from 1969? Also, is it scarce? I haven't seen one like before that I can remember. Thanks in advance for any info you can supply!

Edit: I just realized the date was tough to read on the Denver pin, it's April 26,1905.

The Cubs pin is not scarce, but it is tough to find. I believe it was sold sometime in the early to mid 1960s.

Hey Mike - how can it be both “not scarce, but tough to find”?

Rob, it’s just my own made up definition. Scarce to me is something which takes 10 years to find. Tough is more like 6 months to a year.

Overstreet's definitions which have been in use since the very early 1970's:

Scarce: 20-100 copies estimated to exist
Rare: 10-20 copies estimated to exist.
