Card Variations

1993 SP produced foil cards with no official parallels. The entire allure is the condition difficulty — the foil surface shows any handling damage.

Collector Tip

1993 SP foil scratches from the smallest friction. Never slide it in a sleeve — drop it straight in. Print lines (dark streaks in the foil) are common and will knock a potential 9 down to an 8. Examine the foil under raking light before buying raw.
