2001 Topps chrome King of Kings Refractors... Where are they all?

[rickeyfanatic]

Are these locked away in a PC somewhere, being hoarded by one collector? You NEVER see them up for auction. I know they are hand numbered, but little else. Enlighten me, or better yet, LET ME SEE EM! :shock:

Never seen one. Also would like to see the multi player ones. Base, Chrome and refractor.

They were very long odds in a product from a looong time ago, now. The single players were numbered out of what, 25 or 50? And the triples were #/10, IIRC?

The Henderson Chrome Refractor King of Kings is numbered to 10. The one with Ryan, Henderson, & Aaron is numbered to 5. Almost bought the Rickey from Burbank For $300 a few years ago. I am glad I didn't.

[MENTION=3936]henderson939[/MENTION] you are glad you didn't? Given how rare it is, don't you think that value is understated?

I would think if one popped on Ebay, it would fetch a heck of a lot more than 300 bucks. Have you ever seen one for sale?

Neil, I could have bought it from Burbank, but I just felt it was to high a price. I tried to haggle with the guy but he wouldn't budge. I have never come across another, so maybe it would break $300 on Ebay.

I think $300 would be ok dor that card. Never see it. 3x more rare than 96 Mirror Gold.

Hand numbered to /10, 3 color patch and ultra rare, I'd say it would go more! If we've never seen another, I'd like to know where the Ryan/Aaron's all are.

Bringing it back from the dead, nobody ever produced a single scan of one of the cards. What are they worth?

Took all of 60 seconds of research to find a scan.

I was speaking more about the Henderson, as there aren't scans that anyone has located. The others are a tad more out there, but the triples, well never.

Ftr, only triple chrome card I’ve ever seen, in 22 years of collecting. Was listed on eBay Dec 2022. So—it exists anyway.

Ftr…I bought it. Couldn’t pass it by. It belongs in a museum.

Congrats. Awesome card. A true work of art.
