Great card! Man, the Tributes are always so attractive and well designed imo. I had a weird thought though, regarding the provenance of the patch. I noticed it is similar in look as his 2020 Topps Five Star RPA and I do believe he also has some Dynasty versions that sport a grey swatch as well. Though it may seem plausible that Topps has multiple grey jerseys of him to cut up, what are your guys thoughts that these all come from the same jersey and that Topps does not put the MLB hologram on the Five Star and Dynasty to maintain continuity across the respective sets? While it may seem like a wasted opportunity to not place a MLB hologram on the non-Tribute patch autos, I can also see the thought that they didn’t want to create questions on why certain cards in other sets get a MLB hologram and others do not…

I dunno just a random thought!

That Tribute is very nice. Small pickup of my own:

I've been fortunate enough to get three 1/1 RCs in the past few weeks. Here's the latest purchase, which just arrived today, the Topps Reverence Autograph Patch Platinum 1/1 from 2020 S1:

That's a ridiculous pick up. I'm just going to assume that's gold plated. Please don't ruin my assumption.

NYBBFAN · 11-17-2022, 04:54 PM

Holy cow. Never even seen one of those before!

The A&G Chrome superfractor auto remains a pie in the sky. But this is a nice consolation.

I sent the orange in to psa. Hoping for a 9 because of centering. If it gets a 9 I'll trade it back to you so you can pair it with this amazing red.

I really like the A&G Chromes.

You and me both. I don’t care for the ‘21 design, but ‘20 is one of my favorite cards in recent memory.

Is that your way of saying you don’t like the A&G and are finding away to get it back to me?

Oh yeah, almost forgot: big thanks to BGeezy for contributing to my Silver Pack collection. Looks great!

3rd in MVP voting behind a special two-way player and a player that had one of the greatest seasons of All-Time. Not too shabby for "just a DH"

NYBBFAN · 11-17-2022, 09:04 PM

Huge cards in here today! 3rd place this year… who knows next year?

My dream scenario next year would be Vlad and Yordan battling it out for the Triple Crown, both topping 50 HR and a 1.000 OPS.

That’s not too much to ask, is it?

I missed this earlier… The Yordan RD never gets talked about in here. But it’s the kind of card that picks up steam as a player’s market heats up. And, actually, looking at recent sales of the Black, Indy, Father’s Day, etc., it appears to already be getting some hobby love. But it still looks like a good buy.

Target Red is where it's at... and yes, I have several!

Would have been a greater card if they released it in 2019. 2020 kills it for me, never owned one.

A Red Acuna BCA went for six figures on PWCC. That kinda sale is why I'll continue saying Yordan is undervalued.

Before someone comes in here trying to say the same old things about number of cards, etc...

I agree 100% with you. A Gem Mint 9.5 Red BCA Yordan just sold for 5,700$ in Oct. Granted a shimmer.

But all things considered the scale just seams off. Comparing huge Yordan cards to other huge young stars equivalant cards. I'm hopeful there's further growth in the Yordan market. And I think alot of people here have stated that especially if he follows up this season with another big one.

I don’t usually collect Finest, but something about this one jumped out at me.
