2013 Topps Chrome - N F L
24 packs - 4 cards per pack
1 Chrome Auto card in every box!
I received these:
72 unique base cards - 32.7% of the 220 base set
Topps Chrome is an excellent issue - highly reflective - silver (mirror) card. The photography is sharp with veterans shown in NFL action and rookies (for the most part) shown in practice. The reverse contains complete NFL stats or UFL stats or college stats. The cards have designations such as RC or 2012 All Pro logos prominently displayed.

Topps Chrome NFL - very good issue for the set builder. Receiving about 1/3 of the set in a box is pretty good. One should be able to come very close to a base set with 3-4 boxes and have the trade bait available to complete the set. Also the player collector should like the issue - refractor, blue refractors, sepia, cammo, pink, red, and (I believe black) are all available to chase.
The auto - VERY WELL DONE!! On the card - no sticker.... blue Sharpee.
The die cut rookie is a beautiful card (if a card can be beautiful...) The edges are sharp and the the card is well centered. I do wish that it was numbered....
There are lots of rookie and veteran parallels to chase - the tall boys are good looking cards.
Overall grade A+ -- well done Topps!
Go buy several boxes and send the die cuts to me!!
