26/1: National Flag Pins
I'm pleased to say that, thanks to the hard work of one of the London Pins readers - Mike, all the 204 national flag pins issued to mark all competing countries at London 2012 are now on the catalogue. Mike has taken and edited photos of every pin and sent them to me.

24/1: Prototype BBC Gold Pin?
A reader has contacted me about a prototype gold pin made by Aminco for the BBC. He was given them during the Games by a BBC employee. He was told they were made for approval but that the eventual pins were made by another manufacturer.
The photograph shows the gold prototype alongside a standard white BBC pin for comparison.
Does anyone have any more information about this pin or any confirmation of its authenticity?
