The 2004 DONRUSS BASEBALL BASE SET has a whole bunch of parallel and insert sets in it and figuring out what is what can be a total headache. After I subbed these 4 items I found - make that I realized - that I have the same looking cards but some have #6 numbering and some #DK6 = meaning I have ZERO clue what I really own ( who is not surprised- so many insert sets its why inventory taking is vital !! ). The Orange County's been slabbed forever ( slabbed it in 2006) rest are relatively newer. Maybe sometime in the future when I get more boxes here I'll try and figure out what I still need = for now 4 new updated scan additions

These are SUPER annoying. All DKs in 04 and 05. I am knee deep in tcdb logging and it's insane.

Personal opinion expressed here- NO. I wouldn't trust or believe it even if I saw a Clemens one from this Game Face series. A casual reminder buddy that Yankees jerseys do not have names on them- just numbers. I also do not believe the back of the card itself that says its from an "official" MLB game. Notice how it avoids mentioning what type of game. Could have been an old timers game, spring training, or a special event game where official MLB uniforms were worn. How convenient that limited statement is. Since Steiner also had exclusive rights to Yankees game used stuff during that time period , UD would have had to pay out the a* for anything good. Highly doubt that company would have wanted to do so and put it into such a lower end product. Now if it appeared in an Ultimate card, or on one of their ultra limited Super Patches- sure. But inside a base / manufactured product like Game Face -no. Any I saw I'd avoid as a "manufactured" or "tampered" item.

Again- personal opinion

Agree. No previous knowledge or evidence of Rocket multicolor patches in Game Face,just black ones.

Back in May 2024 was able to get 3 of my base card 2005 LEAF 4 STAR STAFFS done plus one Die Cut
Have now slabbed two more items and just need to locate my one missing base and one die cut variation and that subsets complete. Actually like how the new scans came out better than the older ones with the top open


BELOW IS TWO NEWLY SLABBED DIE CUTS

PRIOR SHOWN DIE CUT

Also was able to add two more variations to my never ending 2004 LEAF EXHIBITS
Think I am almost halfway slabbed now for variations on the base 44 card set ( maybe 1/3 done on the 2nd Edition variations). Below is my two newly slabbed variations

Also slabbed another upgrade from 2000 Pacific Revolution Triple Header HoloSilver # to 299
While its an improvement over the BGS 6.5 that had chipping issues think another one I have there at BGS now will grade higher. Just can't seem to locate one without the excessive edge chipping that series seems to have
