[zlw1]

Hey everyone, does anyone know what this will look like redeemed? This card is in my hands and I tried redeeming it on topps's website but it did not work so I have to mail it in...

It exists!
Really excited, card is extremely heavy.. 1 ounce of 24 kt gold is infused into the card.. that's pretty sweet!

Thanks
Zac

This may be a winning lottery ticket. Topps says that there is only 1 of each gold card.
Great pull, find, or buy -- congratulations!!!

Nice redemption card! MMMmmmm Gold! Best regards, David

I'm excited. Actually purchased it on eBay for someone, but since he didn't pay yet, I redeemed it myself.

Any idea how much gold in these? 24kt 1oz is something like $1700 currently..
Even at 1/2 or 1/4 an ounce, I made my money back 2 or 3 fold.

Thanks for information Duane!

I hope its more than the Pokeman balls...that were giving away about 8 or 9 years ago.....very little gold on those so called gold cards! Best regards, David

Zac - it won't be measured in portions of an oz. - more likely in grams. Either way it's a good redemption.

I hope it does better than the Action Packed 24Kt gold foil stamped cards. Gold is up to $1700+ an oz and you still can't get $5 for some of them

Awesome....even more awesome that it's Mattingly. I used to collect all of his cards back during the 80s before going into a long hiatus. Very cool!

Serial Numbered 3 of 5.

Wow. Awesome card! Looking to sell?

I have actually already traded this card for a cornerstone of my collection. A diehard collector of Mattingly, my former boss, owns this card as of last week.
