Curious which one everyone is liking from this product. Would you rather hit the classic Mosaic Refractor or the Mosaic Silver?

Silver - they are much harder to hit

This will likely cause more confusion.
I've already heard the term "silver mosaic" applied to both of these cards.
And many have not yet figured out the terminolgy of Select and Optic Prizms.
and Prizm prizms...lol

Silver has better look and odds, but refractor is more “mosaic”, reminds me of 2012 Prizm's Prizm.

The fact the product line is called Mosaic but the mosaic pattern is actually a parallel is weird.


Silver all day.

I've held quite a few in hand and the refractor looks way nicer IMO.

I mean, first year Mosaic's mosaic is like first year Prizm's prizm.

I opened about $1000 worth of stuff and my stack of silvers is much more than the mosaic refractors. So I found those harder to pull. I like the refractors better but the silvers get more money.

Silver.

The mosaic effect takes away from the nice design lines from the card.

This is the best that Mosaic has ever looked.

This is the first year Mosaic has looked good, taking away the action backgrounds really helped.

But the silver is still better.

The mosaic refractor I am pretty sure is way more rare than the silver. Going to run some numbers in the morning.

What's being pulled more often? I get the sense they are both short printed about the same amount.

ive opened 3 retail boxes and the odds are the same.

1 silver and 1 mosaic per box.


that said, silver all the way. it’s clean and a classic.

This will probably be one of those "it doesnt matter the print run" moments. The cleaner background makes it look better IMO.

So yes silver moasic is better but imo the odds are about the same at least retail wise im poor lol. But silver moasic is much harder to get in good condition the dreaded surface issues with these cards can be a huge blow if you hit a monster only to see a "ping" in the damn card. Btw the best way I have found to clean these cards and it really works at removing some light scratches is a round cotton makeup remover pad. (Circular) i found that they do not scratch the surface and cards look great I've also used them on other cards [ use DRY only ,] before grading and have had spectacular results.

Silvers look better imo.
Simple is better sometimes.

Silver is rarer and will probably still have more demand down the line.
