Which 99/00 Finest Refractors are supposed to be numbered?

Post by AbraCalabro »

Any one have knowledge of this product? Just curious if there's stuff out there that got out without being properly finished / serial numbered like the 97/98 Finest stuff.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong but I believe only the golds were numbered.

I have one or two Nuggets gold refactors without numbering. I'm assuming they are backdoor. You can easily tell because they don't have the perforated edges.

Example of packed pulled numbered gold with the perforated edges.

Example of backdoor.

If you ever run across one of the later with numbering it was likely added.
Always looking for high end Nuggets cards, current players and Rare 90's/00's!

Nice.

If that's the case, then it won't be as confusing as the 97/98 stuff. What about those subset ones like "GEMS" or or "CATALYSTS"

...and then the inserts, Finest Producers, 24kt Touch, New Millenium. Seems like the New Millenium are /300 in refractor form, but are there any other parallels you know of?

The series two rookies were serial numbered to /2000 and inserted at one in 14 packs. Those rookies had refractors that were /200 (1:138 packs) and their gold refractors were /100 just like the veterans.
