If anyone pulls a miguel andujar or gleyber torres let me know what you have and pitch me a sell price for what you have.  Yankees fan and those are 2 of their upcoming rookies.

A couple interesting notes from the Beckett Pricing/Checklist.

https://www.beckett.com/search/?term=cryptocurrency

It has the Allen and Ginter X Black Mini listed as 1 of 1 card. I know I've seen several listed on ebay not many, but a few listed at the same time. So that can't be accurate. I know collectors are saying its under 100, but it might be less.

It also has a Silver Allen and Ginter X listed as a 1 of 1.

Did you find gold border in hobby box or ??. Is there any rhyme or reason where to find cards?
Gold minis are not in hobby, just retail... (not sure which retail as there are 3 or 4 different retail types)


In my experience they are only in the "value" packs (like shown below).  Not in retail boxes, blaster boxes, or hobby boxes. 



Good information.  Anyone needing black border or mini ginter back let me know

So? can you give us a ballpark (lol) on the gold bordered mini cards?  Huh

I'd like to know this as well

Hey Frank, they seem to be in short print and I would feel comfortable saying around 500 or about.  The thing is they come out of the retail side and the dealers are over on the hobby side cracking open the hobby cases.  But, still not many have shown up so that is about the run I would give it.

Sounds good.  Thank you.

I see the gold border is now going for $1K on ebay.  Hasn't sold, last I checked  Shocked


As many are new to sports cards I highly recommend as these prices keep climbing that before you spend 10's of thousands for a single card, you make sure the card has been authenticated.  There have been many counterfeit cards floated around over many decades .  Unless you have been in this industry you can't tell the difference, but usually the ink is a little off along with other signs but, only to an experience professional.  Happy treasure hunting  Smiley

Indeed, well said.

I have a few gold borders that I'm sending to PSA this week.  Hoping to score PSA 10's  Grin  One can dream

Odds in getting a 1/1 wood card is 1 in 2709 hobby packs
2709 * 300 =


Aren't there only 6 base cards (+ 1 mini + 1 full-size insert like world talent/beaches/fantasy goldmine/etc) in the hobby packs? (EDIT: Technically, fewer than 6, when you consider the number of relics, autos, etc.)

That would make 16,254 of each base card, right?


Second question: Are all base cards printed in equal amounts? I'd wonder if some of the more anticipated cards (like rookies) might be printed in lower quantities.

Regards,
Chris
yes, I misread the pack, thought it said 9 , but it is 8 (with 2 inserts)
Cards 301-350 are inserted 1:2 packs
So is it really
1:2709 x 350(1/1s) = 948,150 packs
948,150 / 2 = 474,075     (every 2 packs have 11 base cards + 1 SP)
474,075 x 11 = 5,214,825 (total base cards)
5,214,825 / 300 = 17,382
so it looks like 17000+ for just the hobby boxes

There are 7 base cards per pack
2709 x 7 = 18963
So there is approximately 19000 of each card just in hobby

Does anyone know how many of the base white background crypto cards are being printed?

The gentleman that is a Blowout Cards user says several thousand, but i'm not sure of his source.

             "Regular Ginter (the white cards) have an unknown print run (probably a few thousand). The full sized white cards will be by far the most common. "
