      Ron, I love that 16mm mini, but would definately pass on the two 9mm´s.

      cheers

        Hi Ron,

        I tend to agree with Peter, both 9mm examples look very weak, even for stickpins.

        If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

            I agree, compare the details with my two 9mm.

              I agree with the guys, both pins are for me too cast reproductions.

              Great picture and great pieces John!

                Sorry, those pics were'nt the best...here's an in-focus shot.

                I have only just noticed that these two are different sizes...the stickpin is 9.5mm approx. and the device is 8.5mm approx. At first I thought that they had just been trimmed to different diameters, but when viewed through a loupe, the details are totally different sizes.

                  Have you seen the mini has the pin upside down?

                    Yes, I had noticed...there is a linear registration mark on the reverse at 6 O'clock which should be at 12.

                      That upside down pin in conjunction with that slightly off angled solder job, is IMHO more a rule than an exception.

                      cheers
