Cards that shouldn't be tough to find ... yet are

[cbrandtw]

Great thread. Maybe someone will get lucky by having others look for the ones we are missing (if they made them). I've been collecting Alex for 20+ years and these few #ed /99 or more have eluded me. Notice the 2 largest print runs below I've never seen. Interesting ! Good luck to all.

97 Flair Legacy Row 0 #ed /100- Have seen 2
98 Pinnacle Mint Gold Plated Artist Proof Coin #ed /100- Have seen 1
98 Stadium Club First Day Issue #ed /200- NEVER SEEN
98 Ultra Platinum Checklist #ed /100- I'm sure I've seen this one
99 Black Diamond Quadruple #ed /150- NEVER SEEN
99 Skybox Premium Intimidation Nation #ed /99- Seen a few.
99 Topps MVP ( He's on 2 different cards) #ed /100- Seen one of each

I had trouble with those also, i think because they looked so close to the base cards might be one reason.

Mark Mulder 2000 SP Top Prospects Destination the Show #D5

Not serial numbered or anything. Just an insert.

1999 Bowman Chrome International Rickey Henderson
1999 Bowman Chrome Gold Rickey Henderson

Neither are serial numbered and I only know of 1 or 2 guys that have seen or own either.

Here's the redeemed one. I'd consider some of these in here to be pretty hard to find though. The redemptions for instance were /100 and not all were redeemed

I've scoured the Internet for a 2001 UD Legends of New York Ron Darling gold jersey #'d/400. I've found a few pictures online, but I have yet to see one for sale.

For my Maddux PC:

1990's and early 2000's Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC) 8.5x11 cards
These were produced in quantities that ranged from 5,000 to 15,000 cards, and yet I'm still missing 1996, 1997, 1998, 2001, and 2004.

2003 UD Victory Purple (#'d/50)
I've seen 3 of the red versions (#'d/25) pop up on eBay but no purples

1993 and 1995 Lykes Standard versions
Like the AJC's these were likely produced in the 1,000's as they were a ball park giveaway, but they rarely pop up...enough to the point where I am still missing them

2001 Topps Employee Embossed (PR/150) and certain years of Topps Limited, HTA, Gold, etc.
In total I need 10 cards to complete my maddux run of Topps cards from 1987-2009, minus the black and platinum (1/1) borders. Finding some of these has been difficult even though (other than the Topps Employee set) they were produced in the 1,000's.

2002 Upper Deck MVP Monopoly Cardinals.

Took me forever to find the Darryl Kile. I was almost immediately offered $100 for it, but it ain't going anywhere.

I have a couple cards that continue to elude me...

1. 2003 Topps Chrome Uncirculated Xfractors #T66 Mike Fetters (#/25)

I have never seen one.
It is the last remaining 2003 Topps Chrome Uncirc. Xfractor that I need for a complete Twins team set.
These were only found 1 per jumbo box of 2003 Topps Traded and those boxes come up fairly often on ebay, but there are 275 possibilities so I don't like paying $75-$120 for these boxes with just one chance. Of course, you could get a Cano RC too. But overall player selection in that set is fairly poor.

2. 2008 UD Baseball Heroes #101 Joe Mauer PURPLE (#/25)

I know of at least one person who has this card. But I have not seen another offered up on ebay or elsewhere in almost 10 years. It is the last 2008 UD Heroes card I need for a complete rainbow parallel Twins team set. Admittedly, I didn't start collecting this set until months after it was released and I'm sure several of these were scooped up shortly after release and remain tucked away in PCs.

These two drive me nuts.

In '99 UD Victory released a 30 card subset of McGwire. For each of the cards they made 5 variants:
base
chrome
parallel
parallel #/100
parallel #/1

I still have yet to find the base parallel of #151 and #152 . There should be hundreds of them yet every one shows up except those two...

examples:
base / chrome


parallel / parallel #/100


parallel #/1
