My best Sir Charles cards from the 90s (pics heavy)

When I saw Mindcycle’s trio of 98-99 Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems of Nuggets players on Instagram, and how he had managed to catch the light, without any glare, reflection, or shadows, I had to ask him what his secret was. A few days later, I had a brand-new lightbox, and thanks to the many tips of Mindcycle, for the first time ever in my collecting days, I managed to take pictures of my cards, without an angle, and catching all the brilliant colors and foil finishes!
I decided to start exclusively with stuff from the 90s. Here are a few of them in chronological order. I will keep adding some regularly if there is any interest. Feel free to comment on the quality of the pics, I’m still learning, and some foil finishes are really tough to catch! Sorry, no Atomic Refractor for now, I still haven’t found a way to take nice pics of them.
