Through the entire production run of 2006 Topps Finest Baseball Cards, two Mickey Mantle Cut Signature Cards were randomly inserted. Each of the two cards is its own 1 of 1. The odds of finding these cards are relatively impossible, but whoever finds them will be able to sell them for a huge amount.
Also, every hobby includes 1 box loader. The box loader will be a Barry Bonds Finest Moments Gold Refractor. They come from a 50 card set. There is also a 1 of 1 parallel for each of the 50 cards that are randomly inserted as the box topper. The 1 of 1 parallel is called a Die-Cut Autographed Barry Bonds Finest Moments Gold Refractor.
Finest Baseball Cards should be a very popular set among collectors yet again in 2006. The Barry Bonds box loaders will get a lot of collectors to buy boxes, while the guarantee of pulling autographs and Mickey Mantle cards will draw in even more. 2006 Finest Baseball Cards should be a successful set due to its impressive card designs.
