Way to rain on my parade! Lol
I will have to check it when I get mine in hand to compare it to my Pat Meares (I believe they used the same stamping for 1999 Ultra as 1998 Flair.

were they real? they stamping looked a little THIN to me. i thought they had BOLDER stamping so i stayed clear of them.

EDIT: this Eric Young looks legit. the SGC looked very suspect.

Does anyone have an idea how many of the fakes are out there? Over the years it seems I've seen an equal amount of each version and until last night in the Griffey Thread I hadn't seen an un-numbered version.

Does anyone have anymore insight into which version of the 1998 Finest Centurion Refractor is the actual pack pulled copy? The non-zero version seems to be the hardest to find which to me suggests it might actually be the non "counterfeit" copy.

Why do you say counterfeit rather than replacement?

What do y'all know about this set, 1996 Stadium Club Porcelain? After a little research, I found that it was a 6 card set:
1- Ken Griffey Jr.
2- Frank Thomas
3- Kenny Lofton
4- Barry Bonds
5- Paul Molitor
6- Randy Johnson

I've been looking for pictures to see if the Thomas actually exists and I've come up with nothing. Anybody have any info on how these were distributed, if they exist, quantities? Thanks guys!

I know this one was pack-pulled (by the person I got it from, directly) and Graded BGS 9 (for a while). I've since unslabbed it, because I displayed it with all the other Finest refractors I had.

These six cards were available through the Topps catalog at an issue price of $79. The six players in the set each represent a key player from each year of the Stadium Club brand history. A special display which cost an additional $19.95 was also available for this set.
