For those cards, i dont think a bad grade hurts you at all.

Yea, the subgrades on the 2nd Diamond Axis are stellar for that set except you know, the 5 surface. More irked by the flip error on BGS part. Not sure anything can be done about that through COMC. They had it labeled correctly.

I'm not finding any real solid info on this card via my googling, it was on COMC from the same seller who had all the Mirror Golds & Fractal Matrix prototypes. It's gold/bronze metal & larger than a normal card. Some sort of sample/promo or redemption set? Looks to be maybe a 6 card set https://www.comc.com/Cards,sr,=1996+topps+metal

Could it be a 1996 finest landmark. I have one similar in 1996 that is part of that set. It's heavy bronze like a Highland mint card

Had the un-numbered one for about a month or 2. Just got the /25 today. Almost have the entire rainbow! Need the Chrome International and the Chrome Gold. Have all the refractors now unless there are some un-numbered ones out there.

I always thought this card was pretty tuff to obtain.
Did all you guys get one if your guy was on #1 or #2

I guess I'm not even sure if it's 90's

I passed an the chipper because I thought it was too much then found one on eBay for half and still passed. I guess I didn't want one bad enough. I don't have the marble either. I believe it's 1997.

I think it is a prototype. One guy on ebay had stacks of the photo/film that they affixed to the metal die, but I have never seen the complete item. I have the Maddux photo.

I think those guys have been well known to have 2 copies. Overall, I think they're less appealing because the card (minus the 1/1 stamp) is identical to the regular.

I own one of these
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1998-Fleer-...358121?hash=item3d35f69769:g:w9cAAOSwuxFYyzsP

And there was one that sold in 2015 by j-man373
http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/chipper-jones-1998-fleer-sports-1727646144

Any chance there are more than 2 copies or is the Chipper listed the same card that sold in 2015?

Hi All,
This seems like the best place to ask since I also collect the 90s inserts - but not quite looking for the super scarce ones.

I am working on the 94 / 95 / 96 Pinnacle Artist Proof and Museum Collection (Starburst) sets.
http://smath812.webs.com/want-list-parallels

Only a few of the museum collections to go and looking for any and all of the artist proofs. Anyone have some for trade? My trade list is at the same place. Also open to buying if bulk lots are available.
Will also be looking for Donruss Press Proofs, Stadium Club 1st Day, etc.

The rest of my trade page is also updated for other insert set wants.
Thanks for any help!

You must of just beaten me out on that card! I refreshed by ebay listings, saw it, clicked the Ebay auction so I can hit the BIN, and it was gone! Congrats on a beautiful card.

Thanks. I hesitated for a min too, went to search for other items and went right back. I waited until Monday to pay as I thought I'd get backdoored on that one lol. I had a couple recently that same thing Happened right as I clicked it
