So, the 2010 Chris Volstad relic does not exist, right? I didn't see one in your scans.

I've crossed it off my list, it is a checklist error.

The same can be said for the 2012 mike leake and mike Schmidt. Those don't exist either. (Although I haven't removed them yet)
 
I'm working on the sets as well but I'm only doing the relic sets from 2006-2010. Did you notice that the plastic is different on the 2011 and later sets? It seemed like the plastic was a lot more sensitive and most of the relics I got in 2011 were scratched. I have an extra 2006 Mantle and an extra 2008 Jeannette Lee relic. Do you have any dupes on the harder to find relics?

i'm impressed at the relic sets!

There was a card in 2010 that I got one of a couple of years ago and decided to get a second one of that card because I thought it was neat enough to give as a christmas gift. It took over a year for a second copy of that relic to show up for me to buy and gift it this christmas so I have to give mad props to OP for his patience as I'm sure a lot of those relics didn't show up frequently.

2011 is the year they started making them in China, so yeah quality isn't as good, and if you breath on them they get scratched.

I remember that you are working on these, but didn't realize you were only going to 2010. How close are you? Did you shell out the money for the Bush that was recently listed?

Seriously what is up with that Jeannette relic? Someone must have been hoarding them back in 2008. Sorry but I don't have any duplicates (can't afford to be doing that:) ) If you would ever consider selling it though, I would really be interested.

Bump, just finished the 2008 Set

Jump back to page 1 to see scans of all four sets.

This was the last card in.

I'm showing this one just because it is topical

This might be my favorite relic out of all of them. I think it would be awesome if some company would make more of these

There are ten boxer cards with a print run out of 100, but these three were the hardest (and most expensive) to find.

I like the Bruce Lee Relic just never wanted to pay the $250.00 plus for it congrats. Knowing you have 4 of them means there only 246 left.

Your odds just increased! I actually only have one, the fours sets refer to the years that I've completed. Pretty sure I didn't pay that much. Just have to be patient and watch for when one goes to auction. Also got to love the older sets that say what the item used is.

Is there a cheat sheet available that lists all the SSPs for the mini and full size relic cards out of A&G through the years?

I don't collect, nor have any interest in the full size relics, so I can't help you there. Topps released print runs for 06-09, so really if you look at Beckett that will tell you what the SPs are for those years. I will add that the 2007 Ken Jennings and 2008 Jeannette Lee are harder to find than their print run would indicate. I will list out the ones that I think are short printed. I still haven't caught up on my scanning, so can't show all of them. These are based on my experiences, so please forgive any errors or omissions. I hope this helps.

For 2010 these are the hard to find ones. The Feliz is the shortest print (how many relics can you get out of a pair of shoes?)

2011

This is the rarest Ginter relics. I wouldn't sell this for $1,000 because really this card is the set.

2012
Erin Andrews is the shortest print (the set breaker)

All of the HOFers (minus Alomar and Larkin they are not SP) plus Griffey, Maris and Jeter. Kate Upton is expensive, but I don't believe it is short printed. This is the set that I'm furthest from completing because I'm not a fan of the design.


4053409_orig.jpg






2013

Chrissy Teigen and Babe Ruth are the shortest printed. All the HOFers plus David Wright and Steve Garvey are SPs

8047416_orig.jpg




907447_orig.jpg





2014
Technically all of the mini relics in this set are SP when compared to previous years due to pack out configuration. I'm lacking in this set because initially I was boycotting this due to the celebrities, and majority of cards going to full size.


All of the HOFers plus Jeter, Mattingly, and Trout
