Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #2

[Gwynn545]

Weird...got this #'d/50 in today and it is a different picture than my #'d/20...now I need to go back and check all of the parallels from that set...

Definitely one of the most confusing sets of the 90s. Hint: you're looking at two different sets. Need any more help, lmk.

That's right! Now I remember...Leaf and Leaf Fractal Materials. Both are card #11, but in all these years I never noticed that they were different pictures! Thanks for the reminder!

This is one set I wish Andruw as in, but no, he decided not to return the cards signed :evil:

1996 Ultra Golden Prospects Hobby Gold Medallion
These 15 cards are a parallel to the regular Golden Prospects Hobby insert set. These cards were randomly seeded at a rate of 1:720 second series hobby packs. They can be distinguished from their more common counterparts by the foil "Gold Medallion" logo on the card fronts.

1998 Revolution Rookies and Hardball Heroes Gold /50

This parallel to the regular Rookies and Hardball Hero insert set were randomly inserted into hobby packs. This set was limited to 50 serial numbered set and is valued as a mulitple of the regular Rookies and Hardball Hero set. Only the first 20 cards from the regular Rookies and Hardball Heroes set were issued in the gold parallel format.

Some recent unique pickups:

^ Nice Thome & Konerko. Were they on eBay?

 

[uniquebaseballcards]

Yes, a while ago. They'd look better if I'd invest in a better scanner

You got the Konerko for like 50.00 and the Thome for under 40.00 right?

I remember wanting to bid on the Konerko but it went for like twice what I thought it would.

 

[uniquebaseballcards]

I don't remember! I think I got a reasonable deal though. I understand they're not really 1/1s though, another set was made I believe.
