Ok, but I'm not sure about the years so I need input.

Ah I didn't want to cause any trouble Jose. It's already cool how you list them per band member. Maybe we can add some info to each pick like details for a CD or vinyl.

Stone's pick from mexico 2003...

I checked material, color and shaped, compared to other of his picks and it's a 100% match, the seller is legit, still, i added on the random section because it was never supposed to be a regular pick for the tour. Any comments are welcome.

I need some help with this, I know for sure the pick bellow with the more narrow font is real, now the one above I have my doubts, the feel of the pick is the same as any tortex pick, but the wider font is suspicious, I have one and a fellow collector have one just like that too but I would like to hear other opinions.

I find it very difficult to believe that someone making these picks for Pearl jam back in the day would do two runs with different fonts. That alone, would lead me to believe that this is fake. Just my opinion though.

Yeah I was being hopeful but I'm more inclined towards fake.

The one with the big wider font must be fake, the old picks thread has pictures of the same pick with the narrower font for both colors green and blue, yours have narrow fonts too and I have the green one with the narrower font too, plus the argument of why they would use 2 fonts is solid reasoning IMHO.

Added some random picks, nothing fancy, some info in the notes, and the controversial "plain pick" :P

That golden "Herco" pick in the "other" section was used by Ed quite frequently during his solo tours (used on mandolin songs I believe). I had a guy offer one to me in a trade but I passed because I thought it was incredibly ugly. hahaha.

I've never seen that rhino Dunlop before though.

The Herco picks are only special if you got them at a show, if not anyone can say "I got one", they are stock picks, and Dunlop Rhino pops up from time to time, same with the plain tortex 0.6mm.
