I hope you picked it up. Where are all the tier 1-2-3-4 cards at. Have never seen a Juan of none of them. That the 1st serial numbered one I have ever seen.

This set is one of those odd Pacific parallels that's tiered. Five tiers, each of the 30 cards only have one parallel. The Juan is Tier 5 which is 1/1, so you're not likely to see it unless you own it. FYI, the other 1/1s are Clemens, Vlad Guerrero, Piazza, Scott Rolen, and, um, Ruben Mateo. Can't all be winners, I guess.

Thanks for the great info. So there is no tier 1-4 for Juan I take it. Then I will need to remove them from the list.

Yes, the other tiers don't exist, but there is another way to find one of these. I don't know if unnumbered versions exist for these particular cards, but there are tons of unnumbered Pacific parallels and inserts out there. I own quite a few I've picked up on ebay, and they show up on COMC every now and then. It is possible that there's an unnumbered Tier 5 somewhere waiting for you to stumble upon it; the unnumbered ones are often sold as the regular base version so keep your eyes peeled!

Probably the hardest to find, and most boring, Alex Rodriguez card I have...but hey! The Foil is purple! That's fun...

One of these popped up on COMC today:


1996 Pinnacle Zenith - Diamond Club - Diamond Parallel #9 - Alex Rodriguez

$50 more than I'd pay for an A-Rod but not a bad card, I guess! ;)

Although I need the Maddux, I have always hated that set. Perfect combination of Pacific, bizarre numbering scheme, boring design and hard to find.

The generosity of this board never ceases to amaze. The other day, I posted in the promos thread that I was working on the 1995 Leaf Promos set, and immediately I get a DM from [MENTION=12668]MatthewN[/MENTION] offering to send me these:

i-9pQL4X9-M.jpg
i-vSF6NDB-M.jpg


Down to just needing the Puckett to round out the set.

Also got a DM from [MENTION=1759]magicpapa[/MENTION] the other day letting me know this had been listed, so I snagged it with a reasonable BO.

Finally, another DM received from [MENTION=1759]magicpapa[/MENTION] asking for my address. I sent it to him and this shows up in the mail yesterday:

1997ToppsMint-M.jpg


Absolutely blown away! What an incredible act of generosity.

Collectors like you guys are what make this hobby so great! Many thanks to both of you!
