Olympic Pins Collectors - Any Here In-House?
Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2011 12:13 am
I was digging around in the garage the other day and came across a small box I had packed away over 20 years ago. Inside I rediscovered a bunch of pins I collected while working the 1984 Olympics at Fairbanks Ranch, in northern San Diego county. Unfortunately, I couldn't find my bar-coded photographic ALL ACCESS 1984 Olympic pass.
In order to raise some money, I'm considering putting my pins up for sale after trying to figure out what they may be worth. After all, they could be almost worthless, or they could be worth a significant amount of money, depending on which pins I have. But if I'm going to sell them, I would like to give my fellow GunCounter members first crack at 'em before I offer them for open sale/auction. And because most of the pins are probably of minimal value other than their age (from the '84 Olympics), I'm not really looking to sell them as a block unless someone offers me a good amount for the entire set. Later on, I'm going to be taking some photos to show if anyone's interested in seeing which ones I have.
Do we have any collectors of Olympic Pins here?
