That 10 black-label 2019 Egg may do well. i saw a Acuna go for 300 dollars or so.  Hard to get a BGS black-label 10.  The grade centering, corners, surface, and edges.

This is the gold label 10, the black label 10 is the holy grail with all four subsets being 10's.  I have only seen one black label ever on ebay.

I found wood mini's for 2018 A&G when I looked on ebay for the sold wood mini's.  Of course finding the #83 is a whole different story.  There were quite a lot more boxes made of where the wood mini is most likely hiding so I am focused on the silver mini as there is only a few boxes left in my opinion.  Would be happy with a red mini or even a black mini especially if they graded a psa 10.  Either way the red mini's are a 25K card when its time comes.

FWIW, not all of the wood mini cards were lost. Only the base cards 1-300 were lost. The wood mini cards that you've seen in the wild are the high number cards which were found inside the rip cards only, and were correctly distributed.

Chris

good information.  A huge mistake by Topps.  Maybe we can do a class-action lawsuit saying we bought packs in anticipation of pulling a wood one and get a refund.  i can't help think that the silver one got discarded as a junk card early in 2018, but there are two X boxes left on ebay if anyone wants to give it a shot.  The person selling the individual packs says he's sold out.

I'd imagine if the silver and remaining reds are not found, the boxes could go 4 figures and then 6.  It would help if Ohtani, Acuna or Torres becomes a huge star as multiple rookies i'm sure would help.

Well, it looks like the regular size glossy has been found and graded of the 2018 A&G #83.  That means there are only two 1/1's left to be found.  The silver mini and the mini wood stock card.   Cool Cool Cool

Thanks for the updates and congratulations to glossy owner. Hopefully,  he or she is a member here

Dolphriends,  i think that wood 1/1 is a myth.  Don't quote me , but i recall reading that Topps simply forgot to make them. An Ebay search shows none for me.

If i find the link of folks complaining about this topps oversight,  I'll share.

What is left available of the A&G x #213 egg  looks like only the #4/5 red mini is available on ebay and two black mini's, one brookiyn back.  No super bargains to be found.   I know the red mini's #1/5 #2/5 #3/5 and #5/5 are all spoken for.  The silver mini is still out there and hopefully someone will find it and put it up for sale  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Hello out there in the cryptocurrency card treasure land.  Time for the dolphin update Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

What's left out there for the real hunters that know these cards are the real treasures and they will have their day.

The regular size glossy 1/1 is still to be found

The wood card mini 1/1 is also still out there

From the ginter x we still havn't found the 1/5, 2/5 and 3/5 red mini.  The silver mini 1/1 is the grand prize for the treasure seeker that finds it.  Just my opinion but, I doubt there is little more than a few boxes even left from the ginter x collection. 

There are still some brooklyn backs and no #'s out there but, not many for sure and maybe a glowie but, odds on a glowie are slim and none.

Well. there is my update for all my friends  Cool Cool Cool

I found a few mislabeled ginter cards by PSA that completely shocked me.  The smallest minor error by PSA could result in a huge difference in value.  When buying make sure the card matches the label or you could end up over paying and a slight chance you can pick up a treasure if you know what you are looking for. 

PSA error cards are OK, but fairly common. (The PSA variety aren't really error cards, IMO. They are simply mislabeled cards.) I prefer error cards by the card manufacturer. (Still fairly common, tho.) For example, my favorite player is Javier Baez of the Chicago Cubs, and I found this little gem on eBay a few weeks ago. It's a Javier Baez relic card, but it has the hand-scribbled notes that belong inside the Dan Rather relic card.

Here are photos of my error card along with pics of what the two cards should look like. (FWIW, I haven't found another one of these Baez/Rather error cards.)

Me
