So many of you might know I have been working on the 1997 Totally Certified Platinum Gold Set since 1997. The Golds are one of the first serial numbered sets created and they have a print run of 30; there are 150 cards in the total set. Some members sent me a box a couple of weeks ago (again thanks!), nice box but no gold, oh yeah the ODDS are 1 gold per 79 Packs, 3 cards per pack (1 Blue and 2 Reds)!

Anyway, I only need 4 cards:
Larkin (never seen it, 1 in PSA population report)
Edmonds (never seen it)
D. Young (never seen it)
Griffey Jr. CS (know of one in a Jr. Collection)

So I bought a box over the weekend, decided not to do a live break since I dont live stream, sorry

I have never been so happy in my life to pull a common, it will be at PSA soon!

What the hell are the odds that you pull one, then pull one of one of the few guys you need!

Congrats.

Lady Luck had your back. Congrats! I have a few of those "common" cards that I can't locate for my sets too. It stinks.

Thanks for the comments guys!
The odds of pulling any one given card is 1:11,850.

This is the happiest I've ever seen anyone who pulled a Dmitri Young card. :) Pretty awesome since you've never even seen one before. Congrats!
