#2 97/98 Skybox Rubies /50
All I'll say about this card is that it was my favorite for a long time.....until I found #1 Only 1 left! I hope this was enjoyable for you guys. I don't get a lot of chances to show off my Armstrong's so I had a lot of fun with this.

My goodness, what a card. Can't wait to see #1. I joined a little late but I have had a blast catching up. So much fun to look at incredible collections like this one

I knew that one would be up there! I wonder which one is number 1

[Oldschool42]

Awesome collection. Can’t wait for #1!

[Vinny407]

Well here it is, my #1!!
98/99 Metal Universe PMG /50
PMG's are arguably the most sought after 90's parallels out there. When I received this card, it was the 1st PMG I'd ever seen in person and it blew me away. I seriously stop and pull this card out at least 2-3 times a week and just look at it. They're unbelievable in person.


So that's it so far. I conduct the exact same searches every single day in hopes of finding more. Now the glaring omission in this list is obviously a 1/1 I've never found one. I know some have sold in the past by way of WorthPoint.com, so they do exist. I'll eventually find one, just have to stay consistent in my searches. I'll continue this thread by updating it with new additions as I find them. Hope you all enjoyed it

a hell of a way to wrap things up! really enjoyed the countdown btw

posted the 2 DA's i had that you were missing on the weekend, should be with you some time in 2024

[Round Mound]

A PMG, of course

I pulled a 97-98 TSC Printing Plate of your player some 5 years ago, I'm sure you'll find a nice 1/1 one day

Yes. I organized a group break with 6-7 Stadium boxes from 97-98 to 99-00. Back when the boxes were still affordable...

Lol, I'll still be super pumped to get them in 2024 Thanks again.

So this popped up on Evay a few days ago and I won it, 19/25. 12 years to find 2.....wonder if I can track down the other 23

HUGE thank you to Mondogenerator for sending me these. He was following this list and let me know he had these 2 and sent them to me for free. I've been looking for a Tiffany parallel for a while, but now it's home forever

Crossed another one off the list Ultimate Victory was a lot of fun while it lasted.

Excellent card, always good to check one off the list! Panini's swirl-o-rama parallel reminds me a lot of this

[webbahg]

Fantastic Armstrong PC, love seeing all of those 90's cards.

[Vinny407]

Thanks guys. Volblorx, I recently opened a box of 14-15 Donruss and you're right about the swirl-o-ramas

[Vinny407]

Big add for me today. I missed out on one of these 10 years ago and didn't see one again until this popped up on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. These are absolutely gorgeous!

Holy crap man. Insane stuff, congrats.

[volblorx8634]

Nice card! 10 years, talk about patience right there. Glad it paid off

[Vinny407]

Thanks guys. Player collecting takes patience and perseverance, especially when it's not a huge name player. I do the same searches every single day and have been since 07. Sometimes I don't find anything new for 6 months. But sure enough, something eventually pops up I need, and then the nerves about landing it starts. It's fun and frustrating but that's the life of a true collector

Well said! I know the feeling! Awesome pick ups and gives me motivation to continue to search for those hard to find cards! GREAT STUFF!

[Vinny407]

Another one in today I've been looking for for a long time. 99-00 Stadium Club Chrome 1st Day Issue /100. 99-00 Stadium Club had Chrome parallels that weren't numbered. The 1st Day Issue Chromes were serial numbered to 100. But the one that will really be exciting is the Chrome 1st Day Issue Refractor, those are numbered to only 25. They're very rare and even harder to find because 99-00 had a bad draft class and the cards just aren't that popular. Anyway, I'm glad to have this now and will continue to search for the Refractor
