Just curious as to who has a copy of one of these very rare cards.
These were randomly inserted into packs and are hand numbered to 10.

Here is the checklist:

Ken Griffey Jr.
Cal Ripken
Frank Thomas
Mike Piazza
Greg Maddux
Nomar Garciaparra
Mark McGwire
Scott Rolen
Alex Rodriguez
Roger Clemens

Being a Clemens collector, I have only seen 2 of these since 1998 and both times the seller had a ridiculous opening bid.

If you have any of the players in the set, let's see them!

This is one card I still really want of Frank. I don't think I've ever seen one of these in person, and very, very rarely online, though I don't check too frequently. 100 total cards during a peak production year of a popular set, good luck.

I have never seen one of these as well, I'm sure they are quite valuable.

Any thoughts on which would be more valuable - the Perfect 10 or the Starting 9 from 1999 Tradition??

I don't know much (anything) about Starting 9, but the Perfect 10's I have seen sell went waayy higher than I thought they would.

Interesting - probably partially due to the pre-2000 Flair Showcase collectors.

I wouldn't have broken that set up!
All #'d 1/10 is insane.

Jeff,
The seller that had the set...weren't they all #01/10 or am I mistaken?

Sorry to bump an old thread...if anyone is familiar with approximate prices that these cards have sold for, or asking prices, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!
