Which Strasburg is 1st RC?

chicuse · Jun 30, 2010

-A&G
-Topps Finest #6
-Million Card Giveaway #401

Wouldn't it be the Finest #6 since the #6 was released far before the other 2?

Any input would be great

If you go by "Beckett definition" - they have already said the A&G isn't a RC, since they consider the mini's an insert set.
Not sure on Finest - may be an insert set as well....and if that's the case I guess you have to say the million card redemption - it's an odd way to go about releasing it, but I guess they are numbering it to fit into the Topps base set.

And just typing that and thinking about all the "RC" designations and nonsense has made my head hurt......so who knows, maybe it's none of the above.

Ask MLB.

I concur. That is the easiest answer and the answer most collector's (including myself) would give.
Should have just said that initially instead of trying to work through the "RC" "True RC" etc. designations.

Everything from 2010 is his rookie stuff. Technically, his 2010 Topps is his first "true" RC, but that's only if you go by MLB's rules.

It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever, they're all the same. Just add whatever one(s) to your collection that make you happy.

All three listed would be inserts in my book as Topps has to be redeemed by MCG

Wow, a noncontroversial answer about rookie card rules?

I am shocked!

allstars · Jun 30, 2010

whatever happened to a true rc having to be distributed nationally in pack form?

uniquebaseballcards · Jun 30, 2010

RC 'rules'??

The same philosophy applies for any kind of card, any year.

But with that said, buying whatever card makes someone happy can be controversial to those who like to think there is always a best of everything that everyone else should agree upon
