I agree. Tough to come by. You don't happen to have a thomas laying around, do you? Or are those the only 3 you have left?

Did someone say gold medallion?


But I agree that the nonGM version of these also look great. Perfect cards to pick up for $5-20

Not sure on rarity, but I remember when these were HOT, and HR #1 held quite a premium


Again, not rare at all by today’s standards, but they were nearly impossible to pull at the time

Yeah my Lofton diffractor pattern 1 is badly miscut if you look @ the top of the card. Couldn't pass it up however as rare as they are.

EDIT - Sorry I phrased that wrong - the card isn't miss cut (it's the proper card size) - there's a printing error at the top where the card should of been cut - it has the bottom of another card at the top of it.

Thanks - I collect firsts, lasts, and jersey #s. I have quite the unique Helton collection, and my Larry Walker, Nolan Arenado, Charlie Blackmon, D.J. Lemahieu, and Trevor Story collections of firsts, lasts, and jersey #s aren't too far behind.

Does anyone want some free 1998 Donruss Studio 8x10 jumbo cards? I just got these from a box, and they really do look nice. However, I have no real need for most of them in my collection and I’d be happy to move them to someone who wants them. I have these players available:

Greg Maddux, Ben Grieve, Scott Rolen, Roger Clemens, Jeff Bagwell, Mike Piazza, Todd Helton, Tony Gwynn, Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds, Paul Konerko, Juan Gonzalez, Cal Ripken Jr. (has some damage in the bottom right corner where it stuck to the pack), Ken Griffey Jr., Travis Lee, Frank Thomas, and Derek Jeter.

That Starquest looks like QSUTEASRT at first haha.

But faulty graphic design aside, those are some great cards! The atomic looks amazing.

It’s not that rare but 1993 Finest Refractor.
he was my favorite player from early 90s
I think I bought this card in 1994 or so for around $120 then. Got it grades few years ago.
He was one of the hottest player in early 90s



this one is not from 90s but just wanted to post it. It’s 2003 E-X Essential Credentials Now 4/19

My favorite card from my 90's David Ortiz PC! It took me a long time to find one, and I still have a hard time believing I own one, honestly. Anyone else got some Crusades to show off?

I love this f'ing thread. I signed into the account for the first time in years just to say that.

My instagram account gameusedjock shows some of my 90s collection.
Nothing huge dollar, but some rarities that my 10 yo self is happy to own.
My favorite cards are 94 Collector's Choice Gold Sig in mint condition and any 90's fleer product 1/1,

Not one but TWO Flair Showcase Masterpiece 1/1 cards on your Instagram page. I am impressed.
