Thin gold safety pins

Please can anyone advise what make of safety pins are the thinnest to buy? The ones I have been buying have quite thick metal and I need to use them on quite delicate fabric and they leave a mark.

I would like small gold safety pins, I have one left which I have had for years and would like to get more. Thank you.

Apologies if you've already done this, but reading the Amazon reviews on the various types here might help narrow down the choice...?

Thank you so much for replying I appreciate it, unfortunately that link doesn't work for me, it is taking me to a page of Amazon daily deals, but thank you for trying to help me.

Is it for sewing? I use quilting clips for some projects. They hold fabric in place without piercing it. This sort of thing:

Thank you wildcherry, they are actually to use on my clothing as I don't like a gaping neckline so I always use a little gold safety pin to pin my dress/top to my bra strap. Thank you for your help and suggestion.
