Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

I think they person I got mine from actually broke up a registry set and sold it off. That would be one heck of a set to put together. It's the only Belle graded by PSA.

[MENTION=12785]viper[/MENTION] , yes , I think those are both great deals. The PMG sold for BIN $19.99, that is a $50-100+ card and the Mirror Blue sold BIN for $49.99. The same seller did his Mirror Red as an auction and it brought $130+. So I'd say the Blue is $150-200+. So I'd say both cards would bring $200-300+ combined and they sold for $70.

I added the PMG, not so lucky on the mirror blue.

Picked these guys up because well, at those prices it's a win/win whether or not you shake out the proof story.

Definitely embossed.

I have the perfect way to store those:

Also, here's my only 24kt Gold (Vinny Castilla jersey #):

Got mine in today as well. Was my second most wanted card, so even with a hole in it, I couldn't hit buy it now fast enough. Hopefully one without a hole will surface eventually, but in the mean time this will do!

Haha nice. Why the hole?!

Awesome card Mac!
As far as the one I got, the seller had it advertised as a 1/1 press proof:


I asked what the deal was with it and he told me this:

"Yes, someone I knew worked for a company in Niles, IL in the 90's. The co. had the contract with UD to die cut, foil stamp and emboss their cards. This is a true press proof not a copy whatsover."

To me, it's not a 1/1, but rather a cool card with a stupid hole in it.

Very surprised you didn't have that one yet...

Very surprised you didn't have that one yet...

The last three sold for $3 BIN, $350, and $375; I was never willing to pay that much. Previous to that, I only remember a couple coming to market in the decade previous. I never had a chance! Still paid more than I would like though.

Saw this on eBay, I thought I remember discussion of the Griffey going for more than this?

Edit: My bad, I must have been thinking of the gold medallion. For some reason, I was thinking the die cuts were gold medallions.

if they were Gold that would have lasted say 5 minutes.

 

[Gjb70]

Yep now I'm kicking myself for not picking up the Belle gold medallion on eBay a while back thinking I already had it. Oh well, add another one to the want list...

Not a bad grade considering the shape of the card!

I finished putting the 1996 Ultra Hitting Machine's GM set together back in summer of 2011. It took me three years to complete. Here's an old scan of it:
