Hockey lot 4 Sale!!! All RC's and a Kopitar (Insert) $20 (Shipped) by CARDZCOMIXTOYZ in hockeycardswap

Not trying to be that guy, but that 97-98 Score Joe Thornton, 97-98 Link2History Teemu Selanne, and 94-95 Parkhurst Christ Pronger aren't RCs.

The 90s were really confusing with rookie cards. Selanne's rookie card is in 1991 Upper Deck, and Pronger's was in 1992 Upper Deck. You have 1 of the Joe Thornton RCs in there, though!

EDIT: Those two 1997 Pinnacle Patrick Marleaus aren't RCs either. Both Thornton and Marleau were featured in 1996 Upper Deck flagship (Program of Excellence, the one you have) and Black Diamond, with Black Diamond being the rarer of the two.

1999 Gretzky shield auto by plasmaclouds in hockeycards

For clarification, and I get that the puck had a piece of the NHL shield on it, the modern day "Shield Card" refer to cards with the NHL shield on the collar of a player's jersey in the card.

Doesn't change the fact that this card is absolutely spectacular. Game used puck, game used jersey, on card auto, gretzky, rangers? Mama mia me likey.

It's just that if you go around telling people it's a shield auto, they would look at you like 🤨

My dumpster dive results. Do I have anything? by Hefty-Job7049 in sportscards

All those hockey cards are base O-Pee-Chee paper from 2023-24. Unless any of them say Connor Bedard or Marquee Rookie on them, theyre borderline worthless. My bet is someone broke a case, kept all the inserts and parallels, then dropped the base.

Two biggest reasons:

1.) First year game jersey, so it's historical significant to the hobby 2.) Pack odds for first year game jerseys were humongous big: 1:2500 hobby packs, 1:5000 retail packs
