England is represented by the rose, Scotland by the thistle, Wales by the daffodil and Northern Ireland by the shamrock. Pins are not shown here to scale, in other words the Northern Ireland pin is not the same size as the England pin. To give you a sense of scale, the logo on each pin is the same size.
The pins are only available as a set which is limited to 3,000 pieces and the price is £35.

So what happened to the well established sequence of colours, then?
I would have expected Ireland's pin to have been green, with Scotland's blue .... and then let Wales and England fight over the orange and pink!
I can see someone from Scotland wanting just the thistle and someone from Wales wanting just the daffodil etc. so why would they just have this sold as a set and not as individual pins?
£35 that's why
I meant that it would be nice to have both!
The nature of puzzle pins means that a set is the way they come!
... so why are they not sold as individual pins ... I don't know, it's a puzzle to me!
