Apparently y'all are both from L.A.; one of you from Lower Alabama, the other from Los Angeles.
I'm also an LA native but have relocated to Bham.
Nice to see [MENTION=7731]ckurdelski[/MENTION] make an appearance! Do you still have the International Refractor set?
Still do [MENTION=3887]AUTaxMan[/MENTION], forget, did you sell this to me back in the day?
One of my all time favorites and a treasure to keep. Love the photos of all of the different states and countries!
I think it went to someone else but I know you helped me a lot with mine. Glad to know you still have it. My Griffey was a 9.5. I hope that's not the one that got busted out.
So I just added a slew of the bankruptcy cards today (many from the '98 pinnacle certified test set) and I'm still scratching my head if some variants I originally thought existed.
My original guess was that there were a total of 8 variants but to-date I've never seen 3 of them of any player for either the base set or the century legends set:
black, red, blue, gold
mirror black, mirror red, mirror blue, mirror gold
I've never seen blue, gold, or mirror black for either. I've got them on my list but have never asked if anyone knows if they exist or not.
Does anyone here have examples of any of those? Here's what I currently now have:

Incredible pickups!
A Certified Blue/Gold do not exist (to my knowledge) as the original Beckett ad and checklist only lists Certified Red, Mirror Red/Blue/Gold, Totally Certified Blue/Gold, and Mirror Blacks as the parallels.
Million dollar question is if the Mirror Blacks were ever printed. Thousand dollar question is if the full Totally Certified Blue/Gold sets survived the destruction order.
I bet someone out there knows the answer to these questions
joey_baseball joey12524thanks to a heads up from [MENTION=3737]carrsallstars[/MENTION] in this thread.
^ No Numbered?
Let the MLB know you’d like to see UD back. The license comes up in a couple years and they listen on social media.
joey_baseball joey12524yes no numberd.
Ah OK so mirror blacks may or may not exist. Century legends gold/blue may or may not exist. Base gold/blue or a no go.
Well at least that's a definitive answer on a couple of them! Thanks again R!
