Show your rarest card

I guess i can add my own to this hall of greatness. I've been lucky to find these 3 Jamie Benn's this year. I tend to search Ebay on a pretty regular basis & was shocked that they popped up & also the fact i was lucky enoughy to win for a steal! I've only seen these one copies of each this whole year. 1 wasn't obtained through Ebay.

09-10 OPC Black 7/10 - a steal for $57 considering the Spectrum /35 has a BV $60

never seen another copy of this 09-10 SPx Spectrum Gold 17/25 - plus Beckett's POP report only shows this to be the only one graded

also..only copy i've seen of this too - 09-10 UD Ice Fresh Threads Patch Auto 3/5

Got a few more Benn's in my PC i've only seen but once or twice...but those 3 there are definitely few & far between!
 
Do stickers count? I think they should.

I have only ever come across one copy of each of these; fortunately they all now reside in my collection.

1990-91 Swedish Semic Elitserien Sticker #23. The first listed Markus Naslund card/sticker.

1991-92 Swedish Semic Elitserien Sticker #214

1993-94 Swedish Semic World Championship Sticker #14

Still looking for 1992-93 Finnish Semic #67; and 1992-93 Swedish Semic Elitserien #240. These are the two biggest wants I have for the whole collection.

If you're looking specifically for a card. Only seen one of these, and it remains the most I have paid for a non-shield card.

Great stuff in this thread! I'll add one from my long-defunct Matt Foy collection that actually got me published in Beckett's Have You Seen Me? article.

07-08 MVP Pierre-Mark Bouchard/Matt Foy One on One dual auto SP

This is the Foy side and it's the only one I've ever seen. Foy isn't widely collected, so it's quite possible that there are dozens of these sitting around in people's junk boxes, but I grabbed the first one that came along and that was it.
 
Here is some of my Fedorov's.


2003-04 UD Honor Roll Signature Class /10 #SC5
2002-03 BAP Signature Series Team Quads /Yzerman/Hull/Lidstrom /10 #TQ13
2005-06 McDonald's Upper Deck Patches /25 #MP14


1998-99 BAP Playoff Game Used Jersey Autographs /10 #G16
1991 Star Pics FLB Authentic Autograph #30
1999-00 BAP Millennium Pearson Autographs /30 #P5
1998-99 Bowman's Best Autographs Atomic Refractors #A4A
 
You can show the 03-04 ITGU SS Shanahan silver auto!! Other than yours I have only seen one other copy of that one. It would more than likely be mine if not for a failed snipe I had set...

Why not, I'll play too.

What's the old saying? A picture is worth a thousand words? This must be a book! ;)

Hello,

I actually owned 2 of those Naslund Playbooks at one point. I ended up selling a copy to a set collector a few years ago, and I still have one sealed copy in my personal collection. I actually contemplated doing that set, but gave up on it. I still have like 6-7 sealed Playbooks in my PC.

Cheers,
Eli:beer:

02/03 BAP Signature Series Autographs Buybacks 1998 48 Larry Murphy

Hit the BIN on the first gold version of this card I saw some years ago on Ebay. Believe I've only ever seen one other copy of that one. Since numbers on these were never released, I had no way of knowing if a silver buyback existed until this one popped up some months ago. It looked like a silver, and when I confirmed that with the seller, I hit the BIN on this one too. This may not be a 1/1, but I bet it's close.

I could probably make a list of 100 cards I have that I've never seen more than one copy of. Even lots of unnumbered stuff like OPC Blank Backs, 09-10 Champs colored backs, Victory Blacks. But I'll show a couple that hold special place in my heart.


For the Avs RC collection and/or Brett Clark PC. Might sound crazy, but I've never seen another of these Golds without an auto. I know set collectors, Avs collectors and Habs collectors looking for this card. Just found one a few months back, and until that, I seriously doubted it was out there.

Even back in the day, these didn't show up very often, and I've seen way less than 10 of all of them. Just ask sedinfan, who has every card on the planet but would probably kill for the Canucks version of this card.


Wow. I just made a post without an Avs card in it. I'm so ashamed... but I'll have to think on it a little more. Or check out the cards in my signature. You don't see 05-06 Artifacts Gold 1/1s every day...

It's rare, my friend. Only because you Linden collectors/canucklehead team set collectors have them all tucked away.

You, me, Elliott, Kevin, Victor. That's 5 of them right there. You, Kev or Victor have multiple copies? There's a couple other Lindenites that probably that have theirs...

Kev has a list of how many are accounted for, I think.

Not counting redemption copies that may have disappeared into PC
1 4 10 12 13 16 have all been listed on eBay. At the time, I knew 13 of the 16 HAD been redeemed.

I have #15 and 02.

Wow very nice stuff being shown off. If that Hull 500 goal club auto jersey is for sale I'm all over it! I love that Federov atomic refractor auto, I've been looking to pick up a card from that set forever!

Super Scripts /25 from MVP 98-99 are also extremly rare (never seen one with my 1st PC-player), 99-00 SS's are so much easier to get, maybe I'm wrong?
Click to expand...

I think that's fair to say. I still have a couple 98-99 ones on my wantlist. Luckily bought the Hejduk RC back in like '05 from Quincy. Even the Golds can be tough these days.

Surprised I haven't seen any Victory Golds from (I think it was) 03.
Click to expand...

03-04 were the ones /25. Believe me, I would have showed a Deadmarsh if I had one. Silvers /50 and Bronzes /199 weren't much easier. 02-03 were also rare though, /100 but showing up only slightly more often. And the Silvers that year were unnumbered but I estimate about 150 of each.
