That's exactly what I did back on page 2. At some point after I also had a raw refractor with less greening but some scratches/worse centering, so it's not like you can't find better examples. But as far as almost green-free? Don't think I've ever seen one.

Great color for sure but seems to be the base. Refractor examples could be non-existent.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Here's a Finest base I picked up off COMC:

You know things are rough price wise when I’m posting back to back Panini cards.

Uninteresting tidbit incoming:
This was actually gifted to me from someone within a game community I’ve kept in touch with for over 15 years. UT99 to be specific, greatest shooter of all time.

Have to admit I love the look of the first 2 years of Prizm. I remember picking up his 2012 silver for about 15 bucks, but sold it the second I realized they were going for over $200. Very clean, sleek design on that year but I used the funds for some 90s inserts I was missing instead.

Put another display up. If you run across the 50 card display on ebay for $80, keep in mind it doesn't fit toploaders. Had to use velcro dots for the upper 4 rows.

Been a while since I got any new Penny stuff in. I remember pulling one of these way back and being unimpressed, I want to say it was Stackhouse but I’m not sure if he’s even in the set. They’ve grown on me a bit. 1:72 packs.

duron · 06-21-2022, 10:42 PM

Thought I shared this here at some point.

Not exactly a pickup but here’s the rarest card I pulled as a kid.
Just happened to be Penny.

Can never go Wrong with a /100 90’s card , nice one !

I was just looking at highlights from that exact game, pretty somber for me. Reignman's last all star game ever. Amazing card, landscape orientation is the best and of course, super photo with great variety of team colors.

Definitely, but back then I had no idea it was my best Penny card, or even the rarest card in my collection. The Bronzes are just so nondescript. In my mind, other stuff sitting in my binder like his Rock Stars Refractor was far rarer just based on appearance and odds. Anything over 1:100 packs was a unicorn to me. And like many other numbered cards from that time, I don’t think the Bronzes had any stated odds. Superb kid logic.

Throughout the years I was in and out of the competitive scene, and a group of about 50 of us are still around organizing matches. Crazy to think that most of the better players never lost touch, both in NA and EU. (Youtube search “Bleh Phenom” if you want to see arguably the best player to ever live in action)

Agree on the photo, and I still have a vhs of the game still lying around somewhere. I can’t remember how Kemp did in that game or how much playing time he got.

Damn. Dude is beastly.

As a fellow Penny fan I love this thread! Keep up the great work man

bjho852 · 06-28-2022, 10:16 AM

Wow wow wow nice Penny's!

I still remember my own Penny hit, happened a few years ago from busting a box of a product released from even more years further.

rustywest · 07-09-2022, 12:56 AM

Why is Duron suspended? All hope for this forum is lost if he is suspended. Especially when you consider some of the 25 post per day, absolute pieces of work on full display here in the basketball section.

Yes, I still have it!
The boxes are way more expensive now though. Might take a while to bust another one again.

Yea I don't blame you, boxes dropped a bit from peak insanity but they're still way up there.

If you're ever willing to trade it for non-Penny stuff, let me know
