So I mentioned that I got a bunch of cards for Christmas. In between Heads Up posts, I'll post those cards. The least rare card here is /100, but they were all pretty cheap. Because that's how I roll!
First up, we have a Seneca I already own. But it's glorious:
As I mentioned a few days ago...I don't typically chase jersey numbered cards. But when it's Christmas...let the 15/15 rain down!I also got this platinum Thad Lewis card:
Which is #'d /10. Super duper rare!
There were a few rare Ben Gay cards on COMC so I asked for those too. There's a Premiere Date /36:
And one of the earliest National Treasure cards:
Which is /50:
I've never really talked about it since, but I'm pretty sad that my interview with Ben Gay never happened. He had commented a while ago about telling his story, and we emailed back and forth a bit to discuss an interview, but it ended up falling through. So close. Ah well.
This next rarity was TOTALLY unexpected. I thought it was just an Edge Tech Preview card, something weird and poorly labeled. And COMC agreed.
But I checked the back at home...and hey...is that serial numbering?
This is actually a Supreme GOLD card. Had no idea it was even serial numbered when I asked for it. So...happy ending!
Final two cards are both of J.R. Redmond. First is a Spectrum Green:
Which is /25:
Someday I'll look at the back of this card more in depth...that 2000 draft class is a hoot.
The other card is Infinity Purple:
This one's /15. Super rare!
I love picking up cards that have less than 100 copies of them in the world! Yay Christmas!
It's been a few years since I've seen a Ben Gay card featured on a blog. Definitely one of the greatest names in NFL history.
