Karmen your price is about the going value on these. Again scarcity is the key, and the 83rd is not rare.
Thanks Bill, I could not remember the name of the 'pins' off hand, I remember referring a women to you a year or so ago regarding one of these types of pins and was going to suggest to Karmen that she PM you but you beat me to it.

Cheers
