I assumed the HF stood for Hall of Fame. I also assumed these were either sold at the HOF museum or were sold during the HOF induction ceremonies. If only given out or sold at the induction ceremonies then one would think that not many people would have wanted the Wilhelm pin and thus their scarcity today.

PS. I think I had the McCovey pin that you show and I also think I sold these on eBay years ago....for not very much money.

I have never seen a McCovey
. I would want one if they exist.
