$450 is the highest recorded price for a no emblem Peace bear. It also featured a Canadian Tush Tag.

Condition and the Tags make a huge difference in the price of Beanie Babies. If the toy is well used and shows noticeable wear then that will dramatically impact the final sale price.

The Tags play a major role in determining the value of Beanie Babies. Not only do they identify the toy, but the condition of the tag will also factor into the value.

Beanie Babies with no Hang/Swing Tag will not be worth as much as one that still has the tags attached.

Many of the Beanie Babies listed below are authenticated by 3rd party authentication services.

There is a cost associated with grading/authenticating your beanie, usually around $15-20 when shipping is taken into account. If you have a rare beanie, or a 1st generation one, then you might want to consider getting it authenticated to maximize value.

There were many fake and counterfeit beanies that were created during the boom of popularity the toys had in the 1990s.

About the author 

Love My Beanies

    • Aside from local flea markets or some kind of thing like that, it would be difficult to sell Beanie Babies unless it was online. One thing to keep in mind, online or not, there are way, way, way more people trying to sell Beanie Babies than buy them. Finding buyers for Beanie Babies can be like a needle in a haystack unless they are for some of the very rare ones.

  • Hi, we are in the process of moving and I’m going through my daughters Beanie Babies. I found a blueish-green Chameleon Hang tag says Rainbow and the tush tag says Hissy, PE pellets, no tongue and yellow eyes. Can’t find any with a Hissy tag. Any ideas on value?

  • I have a collection of about 300 beanie babies that I am wanting to sell. I just moved and don’t have room to store them any longer. Most of my beanies have tag protectors and are all in mint condition. I have a bunch of bears, some in cases. Some of the original 9, some PVC beanies and some with spelling mistakes. Additionally I have some of the McDonalds collection as well. Pleas email me if you are interested in buying my collection nikki.marsh@hotmail.com

    Thanks.

  • Hi! I have a Millenium bear. I’m trying to price it, but it’s hard to find a range as the prices on ebay can be misleading (some people are asking 1 grand+, and I’m not sure if it’s legit.) It’s in great condition. I’ve done some research on what verson it is, and it’s the first. Both mispellings are on the tag and tush tag. Thank you in advance!

    • Hello! There might have been a time when those were worth something, I think that is where some of the crazy asking prices come from. I’ve seen quite a few sell online, on the best day maybe $10. Most tend to sell in the $1-3 range.

    • Hello Gretchen. Recently a Princess with an ‘Erin’ Tush Tag sold for $29 on eBay. Error beanie babies are tricky, most tend to be worth less than $29.

  • hi i have an original beanie babies princess diana bear 1997 with tags and the plastic tag cover. how much is its value? its not the misspelling version

  • Hello I have this 1993 teddy. The heart tag is generation 3 and the lush tag is generation 1. I am
    Not sure what color it’s considered but I am thinking cranberry. It also seems to be the old face but I am not sure. If I could post a pic I would. It has green ribbon around the neck. What would it be worth?

    • Hello! 3rd/1st Generation Teddy’s tend to have some value. Usually in the $40-50 range. Take a look at this one, does yours look like this? If it does, it’s a 3rd/1st Generation Cranberry New Face Teddy.

  • I have 6 beanie babies most have both tags not the original one with the heart, I have the book one but the tags on the babies are dated from 1996 to 2002

  • Hello, I have a plush bunny that I think is called nibbles. They made a brown one and a white one. I have the brown. the tush tag has only the red heart with ty in it and the other side just says ty, Inc 1993 and then pvc china. (more words in between) I do not have the hang tag. I have looked and noticed that the tush tag was 2nd generation. Is it worth anything?

  • I have several Beanie babies I need to get rid of. Some very nice ones. I’ll get rid of them for an amazing deal.. I just want them out of the hose please let me know if anyone is interested

  • I have a 1999 signature bear with a dark red and gold ribbon, rather than a brown and gold ribbon. Worth anything?

  • I….have a purple Peanut….at least the hang and tush both says its peanut…never heard of a purple Peanut….what do i do with it?

  • Now I am just curious, I have a Platinum Membership kit Clubby II bear with a gold coin, I have the whole kit. I am just curious if this is worth anything

  • Wondering if someone can tell me a little about a jellyfish that is yellowish and pinkish has no hanging tag just tag of ty sewed and has odd stamp on tag please help my wife and i out. We have a couple of these ty beanie babies thanks

  • I have a Bessie with pvc pellets. On the tush tag, where it has the TY heart logo, there’s a sticker the logo. Idk what is underneath, not wanting to ruin it by peeling the sticker off.

    • If the sticker on the back of the tag has “surface wash” on it it’s covering a miss spelling. May be worth some money

  • Hi I just found a “peace bear” with the two errors and no number on the tush tag plus PVC pellets. is it as rare as I see online and what is the value thanks

  • I have a very rare 1996 “peace” bear with the two errors and no number on inside of tush tag also very rare PVC pellets and not PE Pellets in mint condition. what is the value?

  • We have a whole bunch too! Just recently learned about the oddities that can add value so we went exploring in our lot. Guess what! We found that we have ones with the double I in original, no r in surface, pink stamps, and double reds ( to hold swing tags)! We also have a ton of originals regular size and just about all of the teenie ones too! Any suggestions on how to advertise to the most interested audiences? We have a daughter trying to get through college, even textbook money would help. Thanks! http://newyork.craigslist.org/wch/clt/4750948569.html

  • Hi! I have an Osito red Mexican Flag Bear, pretty much in mint condition, who came with two hanging tags, one on each ear. Would this be considered a rare Beanie Baby? Thank you so much!

    • There are examples of Beanies that have two hang tags. It doesn’t effect the value that much because it would be easy to apply another hang tag to any Beanie. Beanie Babies with two tush tags would be an interesting item.

  • I have “The Attic Treasures Collection” Orion Ty Beanie Baby in great condition with a pink hang tag instead of a red one. Some I have seen online with a pink hang tag are worth $200,000 but I can’t find anything about the one I have. Surely I don’t have the only Orion with a pink tag! If anyone knows how much it is worth or how i can find out please let me know! Thanks!

    • Hi there, I can get my hands on punches the lobster 1st Gen tag and tush tag…..2 are for sale the only difference is the tush tag , one has 4 line Korean and the other has 5 line Korean? I need to move fast and info would be great….also one of the hang tags has the glue on it from the price sticker being removed. ….you can read most of it….

      • If they aren’t authenticated by someone like Peggy G or True Blue Beans I wouldn’t buy them unless they are basically free.

          • A few of the very early ones have some value, similar to how Beanie Babies work, the earlier they were made the better.

          • Ok thank you. I have several made in 1993. Not sure when all of this started so I don’t know if it will be considered an early one..

          • The dates on the tags don’t mean much. A 1st Gen with 1993 or 1995 won’t effect the value. It’s the combination of Tush and Hang tag that makes it valuable. Ones with a 1st Generation Tush Tag AND 1st Gen Hang Tags are worth the most.

            Generally speaking:
            1st Hang Tag + 1st Gen Tush Tag- big value
            2nd Hang Tag + 1st Gen Tush Tag – have solid value
            3rd Hang Tag + 1st Gen Tush Tag – Some value

            Anything else without a 1st Gen Tush Tag, pretty much in the $5 range except for a few of them.
