'''Pins''' are popular, collectible items in [[Club Penguin]]. Every two weeks, a new pin is hidden somewhere on [[Club Penguin Island]]. A [[Penguin|player]] obtains a pin by walking towards it and clicking 'Yes' in the dialogue box that pops up. The dialogue box says: ''"You've found a/the(pin name). Would you like to pick it up?"''. Then, the player can select a pin from their [[inventory]] and it will appear on the top left hand corner of their [[player card]]. Some pins, such as the Christmas Tree pin, Circus Tent pin and Yellow Balloon pin, were bought at the [[Fall Fair]] and inside special issues of [[The Penguin Times]]. To find a pin, many [[penguins]] ask, ''"Where is the pin?"'' in-game or ''"Where did you find that pin?"'' if he/she is using Ultimate Safe Chat. Some pins are themed for an event that is coming up or going on. The first pin came out in March 2006, during the St. Patrick's Day [[Party]], and it was in the form of a Shamrock pin. There is a card that says: "Help me find the pin!" with a boy and girl penguin with a magnifying glass looking for a pin.

The Ruby Pin - the first pin to ever return.
Were you looking for the real life pins?

Pins are popular, collectible items in Club Penguin. Every two weeks, a new pin is hidden somewhere on Club Penguin Island, and once gone, old pins will never return. A player obtains a pin by walking towards it and clicking 'Yes' in the dialogue box that pops up. Then, the player can select a pin from their inventory and it will appear on the top left hand corner of their player card. To find a pin, many penguins ask, "Where is the pin?" in-game or "Where did you find that pin?" if he/she is using Ultimate Safe Chat. Some pins are themed for an event that is coming up or going on. In the yearbooks in the Book Room, if you click in the right places, you will be able to view one pin that was hidden for that certain month (except for the 2006-2007 Yearbook). With the exception of the Disney Castle Pin, all pins are not unlockable.

Penguins can now see their pin collection in their Stamp Book.


Pin list

See main article, List of Pins.

Flags

See main article, Flag.

Flags are very similar to pins in that they are displayed in the upper left corner of a penguin's player card. However, these are bought at the very end of every Penguin Style catalog for 20 coins each. Flags are slightly larger than most pins.
