Precious Metal Gems are crazy tough to pull and find (In all sports)

Lots of great cards listed in this thread. There were some absolutely incredible cards made in the 90s. I wanted to say thank you to edwards_everything. Because of his post, I had to go out and pick up one of these:

I had never seen them before and as he mentioned, they look so damn nice. When you hold it to the light, it does look like a stained glass window. Very sharp card and very affordable.

You're welcome. I was originally going to flip the Jeter I got. I thought it would look like the Studio Stained Glass Stars set - which don't really look all that great. When I went to scan it, I held it up to the light, and thought - I gotta keep this.

Everybody else - keep the inserts coming. There are some REALLY nice cards in folks PCs on this board.

I picked up one of the really hard to find 1/1 inserts a few days ago. In fact, this is the first 1/1 Butler from the 90s that I've ever owned. I now have hope for the others. These are the scans from eBay - I haven't yet scanned them for my web site.

I found the last one for the rainbow, the artist's proof, it's on the way. This is one of my favorite 90's insert sets.

Not sure if these have been mentioned yet, but besides the obvious 1/1s, these insert/parallels have proven to be the toughest for me:

1997 Pinnacle Inside Diamond Edition
1997 Score Dodgers Team Collection Premier Club
1998 Score Team Collection Platinum

1993 Pinnacle Cooperstown DUFEX. (Need to find a good scanner for this one! Doesn't do it justice)

1994 SP Holoview Die Cuts

1995 Certified Select Mirror Gold

1997 Bowman Chrome International Refractor

1998 Donruss Fantasy Team Die-Cut (242/2000)

I forgot all about the 1990 Leaf Preview cards

And the 1996 Summit Big Bang Mirage cards

 

[Cobra29svt]

I like the look of the regular Big Bang a little better for some reason.

On the topic of rare 90's inserts (and some not so rare) I found a guy selling a BUNCH of 90's inserts on eBay while looking for, well, 90's inserts of my Astros (thanks to this post).

Player collectors may want to check him out (not me, so I am pimping no one):

I could stare at those cards all day and not get sick of them. Imagine a wall enshrined with each green, red and purple of each player. :drool:

 

[blanning71]

Does anyone have any of the Big Bang inserts for trade?

I am looking for the Griffey, Ripken, and Chipper Jones. If so, PM me and let me know.
