Show your rarest card

[roaddogg1718]

Yes that 03-04 Signature Series Yeam Quads is insanely rare and expensive, I unfortunately missed one recently because of its price....

But my rarest non 1/1 card should be this

I has been a Tommy-B collector since 1996 and it was the very first time for me to see that card a 97-98 Score Penguins Team Issue Premier Club and I was luckly to win the card at ebay recently.

I thought about posting one of those myself. Rare cards, and gorgeous too!!

I was lucky enough to pull the ones for my Deadmarsh and Foote collections when I found a couple boxes of the stuff one time. I just bought my final Platinum from the same seller where you got that and was able to work out a trade for the 5 Avs Premieres he had too. So I'm at 9/20 for the Avs now. And it only took 15 years to get that far...

If we are not including 1/1 etc...these are two that I haven't seen many copies:

SCott after opening I dont know how many cases of 06-07 I have only pulled 1 shooting gallery which I still have of Detroit

 

[BigBarracuda]

I agree with many in that this is a great thread, some really awesome cards!!!! Keep 'em coming!


Those that know this card, may have only heard of it I am glad to share it here...

BAM

For those that don't recognize it, please move along as there is nothing to see here :beer:

I love that dual Sedin on jersey dual autograph! Sweet card I've never seen that one before.

 

[mark14h]

I no longer have a picture of it, but the rareset non numbered card I have pulled was a Mark Messier 08-09 Masterpieces Brown Border Auto. Only seen 2, and heard it was limited to 5.

I haven't seen this one offered anywhere #/16. I was fortunate enough to grab this extra copy from a fellow Linden collector.

Was going to post this one myself.

Maybe it's not so rare.

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

 

[X-Head]

Here's a couple more from my collection Jon:

I've seen one other version of that Dionne before, but never the Clarke. If you ever decide to part with them I think I know of a good home

That card is the reason I gave up on that set. Near impossible to find and after he passed the prices went through the roof.

Oh....not bad!
The seller had some more Premier cards with other Pens player and the Jagr one was really expensive, the card is so much more gorgeous in reality, photos/scans can't justify enough for its true beauty in reality.

I was really luckly with only $17.50 with my copy....if I never had snagged up the card so I may never gets a another chance...

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.

 

[brisco10]

How about these two?

The Mario above.

Thanks

Ive seen a couple of these over the years but they dont show up very often for a card /999, they where a redemption so I think not to many got redeemed because when they do show up on the bay they go for more than you would think

[/IMG]

I watched Ebay for about 6 months for that card to appear as it was the only FWA I was missing from 01-02 to 10-11. I ended up getting pissed off and bought a whole set just to have it, lol.

When they do show up, people usually BIN at like 10 bucks or something, lol.

Indeed, those team quads are tough - the 'nucks one is my #1 most wanted card and the search continues a decade later! Only seen one surface in all these years and someone scooped it at a ridiculous Bin for 30. Poor seller... I woulda gone triple digits easily.

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...

Rarely have time to get on anymore but a few notables in my collection;

Eh...$30??? Now that's cheap!

I missed a Penguins Quad with my 2nd PC-player who was sold for $150 with BIN (the buyer didn't cared to make an best offer, only just BIN:ed for its full price $150, same selle who bought many other card with my PC-players with BIN for ridiculously high prices like $175 for a $105 card, never seen anyone who didn't cared to best offering before bying those cards)

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?

 

[wyomnwild]

The MacInnis was a tough one for me to find. I think my friend Andy is still looking for a copy of this card. Of course, I'm still short the Yzerman to complete the set.

 

[Kipper+Backlund]

Here's a few of mine,

09-10 ICE has been out 2 years now and this is the ONLY copy I've seen amongst my bi-daily ebay searches, I scooped this one up at a local show believe it or not. I paid $25, would've easily gone higher!

Another that I've only seen one of, this one was on eBay for 11 minutes before I scooped it up, pretty sure UD was just looking to use his last few stickers.

And while I'm at it, this one. 06-07 Future Stars from a Swedish Set, I've never seen another copy aside from the one I picked up from a member on here.

I have a few more, bu these are my 3 rarest, I guess.

Great thread, very fun to look at.

 

[capsfan30]

Why not, I'll play too.

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

I know many people that can use those last three cards for their sets.

 

[drkicker]

Redemption for these werent insert into packs, same seller listed 2 he got for redemption replacement for basketball cards.:dizzy:

I missed out the first one he listed (didnt know he had 2), i think i traded a dual scripted swatch out of 5 with Gillies and Sutter for it.:crazy:
