Here are three birthday pins from the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa, Florida. This location opened in 2004 and is owned by members of the Seminole Tribe of Florida.
All three of these pins have been stored in the plastic bags and never worn, I have marked them as used. The Brand New Day Pin does have a little spot of discoloration on the back, not sure what that is since it has not been out of the packaging (see arrow in picture). Most likely from the manufacturing process. You don't see it without the magnification. I will describe each one below.
1. Pin called Brand New Day from 2007. This pin was distributed at a Special Event. The design is a blue guitar neck and headstock with a swirl design in place of the body. It has a white ribbon with "Brand New Day" across the middle of the pin. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tampa logo is at the bottom. It measures 1 1/2 inches across and is 2 1/4 inches tall. This pin was never sold in the Rock Shop; it was only given to guests. It is manufactured by Pincraft. The base material has a gold appearance and is a Cloisonne paint style. The back pattern has a musical theme with guitars and drums. Hard Rock, Pincraft and the Hologram button, which reads Hard Rock inside are on the back. The colors are blue, yellow, black and gold.
2. Pin is the Happy Birthday Pin from 2008. Only Players Club Members could get this pin on their birthday as a gift from the casino. This is a large pin and measures 2 inches wide and 2 inches long. It is manufactured by Pincraft. The base material has a gold appearance and the front is painted with clear epoxy coating. It features a set of multicolor set of drums with presents, balloons and candles surrounding them. The front says Seminole Hard Rock Casino, Tampa and Happy Birthday 2008. The back pattern has a musical theme with guitars and drums. Hard Rock, Pincraft and the Hologram button, which reads Hard Rock inside are on the back. It has the 2 hard rubber pinbacks to hold the pin on.
3. Pin is a Black and Gold Gibson Guitar with 5 candles on the front. The front says Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa and Happy Birthday 2009. The base material has the same gold appearance and the front is painted with a clear coating. The back pattern has small guitars and the name "Hard Rock" repeated over and over. It is by Pincraft and has the Hologram button, which reads Hard Rock inside. It has the two rubber pinbacks.
These would make a great addition to your Casino Memorabilia Collection for all of you Pinatics.
