Introduction!
I have amassed an absolutely awesome guitar pick collection from various tours around the world, gathered over years of attending concerts and crossing paths with legendary musicians and incredible artists. Each pick carries a story and a connection to a specific moment in music history, but naturally, with such a vast and varied collection, I’ve hit a wall with some of them. While most of my picks are clearly labeled or memorable, there’s a select group that remains a complete mystery, lacking visible names, definitive logos, or easily identifiable tour markings. That’s why I'm launching this identification competition—I need the combined expertise and sharp eyes of fellow collectors and music fans to help me unlock the identity of these elusive pieces and finally place them in the correct context of their tour history!
I've been fortunate enough to build a unique guitar pick collection over the years, gathered from various tours around the world where I’ve crossed paths with some famous musicians and incredible artists. Each pick carries a bit of music history, but naturally, I've ended up with a few whose origins remain a complete mystery to me. That’s where your expertise comes in! This competition is designed to tap into the knowledge of fellow collectors and music fans to finally identify these elusive pieces.
If you can successfully identify one of my unknown picks, I will send you 10 Hive as a thank you. If you manage to identify a second one, you’ll receive an additional 7.5 Hive. The competition officially closes 7 days from the time of this post, so get your identification attempts in quickly. However, don't worry if you crack a code after that; any valid identifications after the deadline will also be rewarded. Furthermore, if any of these picks are discovered to be particularly valuable or rare due to your information, additional rewards might be given to those who identify them! Good luck, and let the identification begin!
Interlude
If you're not familiar with my guitar pick posts here on Hive, up being posting about these for a couple weeks now. And I've got a collection with some legendary guitar picks. Please check out my profile to see some of the guitar picks for my collection.
All right, here's some better photos of the guitar picks I need identified
This first picture shows the back side of these Guitar picks. Please use these numbers when commenting that you have identified the guitar pick.
Also a bit of a disclaimer, some of these guitar picks have the name of the guitar pick manufacturer. Not looking to identify the manufacturer but the band that toured with these picks. For example, planet waves, Dunlop, torex, are all guitar pick manufacturers. As well, I'm not trying to identify the second pick Jeff Stimco Is a well-known guitar tech. It's the tour, the band, that we're looking for in identifying these. Hopefully this makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions

Well, I know this is a little bit of an obscure challenge, and the prizes aren't great at the current price of Hive! But I could really use some help.
Just a heads up, I've tried these all under Google lens with no success, I haven't done too much digging, some of these even have websites on them, if you're a music buff, this might be a little fun.
Some of the guitar picks of my clutch and are worth over $500 USD. I wonder if there's something in this unidentified section of extreme value?
