As far as serial-numbered cards being scarcer than the printed value, I can tell you that only 34 of the 50 2004 Bowman Draft Chrome gold refractor AFLAC cards were distributed. Ironically, because more than 50 redemptions were inserted, and Topps offered the 4-card autographed sets in their stead. All but 34 accepted the offer

So theres only 34 mccutchens? or 34 of every player?

34 of each player - only 34 of the 50 gold ref sets were redeemed

I opened a crazy amount of retail and had 15-20+ copies of most gold's but only pulled 4 of these. They were all numbered between 0200-0300/2013. These brought a nice premium because of how hard they are to find.

I don't believe any other gold's were SP from the 2013 Update set.

What’s crazy is I randomly own his Gold 2000 Topps RC with Josh Hamilton and Chin Feng-Chen. I’m going to be rich when all three get into the Hall of Fame!
