What 4 trading cards should be on the Mount Rushmore of the 1990’s?

By Scott Wright

In today’s day and age of collecting, pulling a serial-numbered card from a pack has become a routine occurrence. However, casting our minds back to the late 1990s, this seemingly simple act was a daunting task, necessitating the relentless opening of boxes after boxes after boxes after boxes

Collectors of rare late-1990s serial-numbered basketball, baseball, and football cards are driven by a passion deeply rooted in the challenges faced during that era. The mere recollection of how elusive these cards were in wax ignites a fervor, especially considering that the very boxes that housed these treasures have now become more scarce and expensive than ever before.

Let's embark on a nostalgic countdown, unveiling the four most coveted sets from the late 1990s, each contributing to the rich tapestry of that era’s sports card collecting history.

Without further adieu, the Mount Rushmore of Rare-Late 1990’s Cards:

4) Fleer Brilliants 24-KT Gold**

A product that graced the collecting world for just one year, Fleer Brilliants 24-KT Gold has not only developed a cult following but is also steadily gaining mainstream momentum. At the forefront of this set is the 24-Karat Gold series, serial-numbered /24. The rarity of these cards is accentuated by reports suggesting an insertion rate of 1 per 450 packs, translating to a staggering scarcity of one per 18.75 boxes. To truly grasp the rarity, one must appreciate the dedication required to uncover these golden gems.

3) SkyBox Premium Star Rubies**

The allure of SkyBox Premium Star Rubies took flight in 1997 when sequential serial numbering was introduced, with the fronts adorned with a vibrant, colorful finish. These Rubies weren't much easier to find than the actual gems either. In 1998, reports indicated an insertion rate of one per 10 boxes, adding an extra layer of rarity with Series 2 featuring short-prints serial-numbered /25.

2) E-X Credentials**

Debuting as a high-end set for its time, the E-X series made a resounding impact on sports card collecting. Its premiere showcased one of the only Kobe Bryant serial-numbered rookie cards (/499). As the years progressed, the Essential Credentials Future and Now sets earned recognition for their unique serial numbering, intricately tied to the card's position in the checklist. Unveiling one of these Credentials required ripping approximately a dozen boxes, making each discovery quite a triumph.


1) Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems**

Undoubtedly, no set is more synonymous with rare 1990s cards than "PMGs." These iconic cards made their debut with serial-numbered Red (/90 in basketball and /135 in football) and ultra-rare Green variations (/10 in basketball and /15 in football) in 1997. The subsequent introduction of the scope pattern /50 in 1998 and the embossed gold /50 in 1999 solidified their status as the most desired cards by collectors within the niche. In recent years PMGs have begun transcending their niche and are rapidly becoming darlings of the hobby as a whole.

Finding many of these cards can be akin to a needle in a haystack. However, NextGem is home to thousands of PMG’s, Rubies, Credentials and 24KTs, most of which you won’t find anywhere else. If you’re searching for special rare cards NextGem either has it or will help you track down and acquire it.

Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons)

Cade Cunningham, the number one overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, arrived in Detroit with sky-high expectations. Before Draft Night, Cunningham was making highlight reel moves on ESPN’s Sports Center on almost a nightly basis.

The versatile guard has more than lived up to the hype, showcasing a well-rounded skill set and a basketball IQ that belies his age. Cunningham's ability to make precise passes, handle the ball, and score from almost anywhere on the court has already made him a centerpiece for the Pistons.

Who are the top 2021 NFL Rookie football cards to chase?

The 2021 NFL Rookie class is starting to take shape with Trevor Lawrence and Jaylen Waddle as two of the top players from that draft class.

The National Football League is no stranger to witnessing fresh talent and young rookies making an impact on the field. The 2021 NFL season was no different, as a group of promising skill players such as quarterbacks, wide receivers, linebackers, running backs and tight ends burst onto the scene, leaving their mark and proving themselves as potential future stars. In this article, we will highlight the top 2021 NFL rookies who showcased exceptional skills, athleticism, and potential throughout their inaugural season.

Trevor Lawrence - Quarterback, Jacksonville Jaguars:

Trevor Lawrence, the first overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, entered the league with immense expectations. Despite a challenging season for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Lawrence exhibited his poise, arm strength, and football IQ. He displayed flashes of brilliance, demonstrating why he was considered a generational talent.

The 2021 Panini Prizm Football Hobby Box is always a safe unopened wax box to rip or hold since it’s a well received product and potentially very tradable or you can easily liquidate it due to the presence of Lawrence’s rookie card.

Ja'Marr Chase - Wide Receiver, Cincinnati Bengals:

Ja'Marr Chase, the fifth overall pick by the Cincinnati Bengals, was an electrifying force on the field. Reuniting with his college quarterback, Joe Burrow, Chase showcased his exceptional speed, route-running ability, and ball skills. He finished the season with over 1,400 receiving yards and set the rookie record for most receiving yards in a game.

Feeling lucky? Why not invest in a 2021 Panini Prizm Football 1st Off The Line Hobby 12-Box Case? As of this writing, 2021 football unopened boxes and cases have been very hot. Will it continue?

Micah Parsons - Linebacker, Dallas Cowboys:

Micah Parsons, the 12th overall pick, brought a tremendous impact to the Dallas Cowboys' defense. His versatility, athleticism, and football instincts allowed him to excel at both pass rushing and pass coverage. Parsons finished his rookie campaign with over 100 tackles, earning him the Defensive Rookie of the Year award.

Najee Harris - Running Back, Pittsburgh Steelers:

Najee Harris, the 24th overall pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers, quickly established himself as a workhorse back. With his combination of power, elusiveness, and receiving ability, Harris became a vital component of the Steelers' offense. He recorded over 1,200 scrimmage yards and showcased his potential as a premier running back in the league.

Looking for a Harris rookie autograph? Take a look at a 2021 Panini Donruss Optic Football Hobby Box.

Jalen Waddle - Wide Receiver, Miami Dolphins:

Jalen Waddle, the sixth overall pick, brought a much-needed spark to the Miami Dolphins' offense. Known for his blazing speed and explosive playmaking ability, Waddle quickly became a favorite target for Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Despite missing some time due to injury, Waddle finished the season with over 900 receiving yards.

Can’t go wrong with a 2021 Panini Select Football Hobby Box where you can chase a Waddle (not the pink one below)

Kyle Pitts - Tight End, Atlanta Falcons:

Kyle Pitts, the fourth overall pick, had high expectations coming into his rookie season. He didn't disappoint, showcasing his rare combination of size, speed, and pass-catching ability. Pitts finished his debut season with over 1,000 receiving yards, setting a new record for rookie tight ends. His performances hinted at his potential to revolutionize the tight end position.

Pitts is one of the new breed tight ends and could be a force for years to come. I really enjoy the 2021 Panini Absolute Football Hobby Box because you can chase a Pitts’ Kaboom card.

Rashawn Slater - Offensive Tackle, Los Angeles Chargers:

Rashawn Slater, the 13th overall pick, made an immediate impact on the Los Angeles Chargers' offensive line. His exceptional technique, footwork, and strength allowed him to neutralize some of the league's top pass rushers. Slater's stellar rookie season solidified his place as one of the premier offensive tackles in the NFL.

Patrick Surtain II - Cornerback, Denver Broncos:

Patrick Surtain II, the ninth overall pick, proved to be a shutdown cornerback for the Denver Broncos. His physicality, instincts, and ball skills made him a formidable opponent for opposing receivers. Surtain's performances earned him a spot among the top rookie defensive backs in the league.

Just because you’re a cornerback, doesn’t mean you will be ignored. I received a 2021 Wild Card Alumination Football Hobby Box and I just so happened to pull a Surtain rookie autograph card.

2021 Wild Card Alumination Football Hobby Box Patrick Surtain II autograph rookie card

Check out this Patrick Surtain II rookie autographed card from a 2021 Wild Card Alumination Football Hobby Box

The 2021 NFL season witnessed an exceptional group of rookies who made an immediate impact and can forever be chased in unopened wax boxes or sealed cases. Let’s keep in mind that it could take another couple of years before the 2021 NFL rookie class to completely develop, so it’s not that time yet to dump the Trey Lance, Kellen Mond or Kyle Trask quarter rookie cards yet. They still could find new life as the upcoming NFL football season starts.

Everything and anything from baseball cards, to football cards to basketball cards and everything in between is available from Roadshow Cards.

Yes! They offer free shipping on orders of $199 or more. If you don’t reach the $199 threshold, Roadshow Cards offers a $5.99 flat rate shipping to the contiguous United States..

For example, you can purchase a 2022 Leaf Draft Football Hobby Blaster Box that includes an amazing 2 autograph cards in a simple blaster box. You’ll be around $30 so you’ll need to spend the $5.99 to have that box shipped to you. Roadshow has competitive pricing so buying a single blaster box could still be more affordable through them even with shipping fees.

Because the blaster box could be located in any one of Roadshow Cards’ 4 locations, the item could be shipped from any one of them. Depending on where you live, the shipping times could be anywhere from 3-8 business days according to their website.

Roadshow also offers USPS Priority which is 2-3 day shipping, but that’s dependent on the location your items are located in.

They also offer international shipping, but the pricing will probably happen on a case-by-case basis.

Does Roadshow Cards charge sales tax?

Yes. We did a test and tried to checkout by adding a 2022 Panini Capstone Baseball Hobby Box into our online shopping cart on Roadshow Card’s website. After a few steps in the checkout process, we noticed that their e-commerce system added sales tax. It sucks, but taxes is one of those things one must do and pay in life.

Is a specific Roadshow Cards coupon code any better than their other promo codes?

No. Since we couldn’t find an existing coupon code for any one of Roadshow Card’s shops, we can’t say there is one promo code better than the other.

Coupon and Promo Codes for RbiCru7

RbiCru7 Sports Cards & Collectibles LLC sells unopened wax boxes, cases, packs and blasters for Topps, Panini, Upper Deck, zerocool and Rittenhouse. They are located in Saint Peters, Missouri.

Quite possibly the biggest secret in the unopened wax box industry is RbiCru7. I’m not sure how the name came up, but I’m assuming that the founders of RbiCru7 like baseball (yes the “Rbi”) and there is a Cru (or “crew”) of 7 of them. Whether there’s 1 member, 7 members or 70 members that are running the wax box business - they are one of the cheapest and most affordable places to get the newest trading card wax boxes, cases and pack on the Internet.

On a side note, if you happen to know the background of why they named the company RbiCru7, please drop us a message or Tweet us @waxstat.

RbiCru7 - shop baseball cards and boxes

This is the homepage of RbiCru7 - an elegant design that makes it super easy to navigate and find the baseball card box or football case that you’re looking for.




What are the Coupon Promo Codes for RbiCru7?

There are no coupon or promo codes for RbiCru7. We looked and searched all over the Internet, but we could not find any discounts for RbiCru7.

We looked around, and we could not find any coupon codes for RbiCru7, but what they lack in discount codes, they more than make up in the variety of unopened products. What does that mean? RbiCru7 is one of the few places that sell products by the pack. While I cannot vouch for them since I have not purchased a pack - one must consider the trustworthiness of a seller when they buy an individual pack. Packs could be weighed for memorabilia cards or autographs. RbiCru7 is very highly regarded in #TheHobby industry so I would not worry about purchasing packs from RbiCru7.

If you’re aware of my promo codes for RbiCru7, make sure to contact Waxstat, but in the meantime, we’ll reach out to RbiCru7 and speak with their team. We’ll mention to them that they need to have some discount codes available for their customers and potential future customers.

What are the hottest hobby boxes and cases from RbiCru7?

It’s that time of the year where so many trading card boxes are coming out and retailers need to sell them to get ready for next year’s inventory.

Does RbiCru7 offer free shipping coupon promo codes?

No. RbiCru7 seems to have some of the most competitive pricing on the Internet for unopened wax boxes, cases and packs. However, they do not offer free shipping.

These are shipping options that we had on checkout from RbiCru7.

Does RbiCru7 charge sales tax?

No. We did a test by putting a few 2022 Panini Revolution WNBA Basketball Hobby Boxes into our cart, but sales tax was not added to our total. This is a huge savings for those that live outside of the state of Missouri when purchasing unopened wax boxes. But make sure you pay your sales tax on April 15!

Is a specific RbiCru7 coupon code any better than their other promo codes?

No. Because we cannot find any valid promo codes right now, there isn’t one coupon code better than the other.

No. Since we couldn’t find any coupons on the website of RbiCru7, there isn’t an expiration date.

Does Chicagoland Sports Cards offer free shipping coupon promo codes?

Of course! As it is pretty standard, free shipping is available with Chicagoland Sports Cards as long as you spend $299 or more. This is the net price of your entire purchase less any sales tax and discounts, so double check before you reach out to them to file a complaint. The $299 threshold is a little higher than most (most waive shipping after a $250 spend), but with the trading card hobby, getting to $299+ should be pretty easy.

Is a specific Chicagoland Sports Cards coupon code any better than their other promo codes?

Because we cannot find any valid promo codes right now, there isn’t one coupon code better than the other.

Is there an expiration date for the Chicagoland Sports Card’s coupon code?

No. Since we couldn’t find any coupons on the website of Chicagoland Sports Cards, there isn’t an expiration date. The free shipping promo of $250 or more doesn’t appear to have an expiration date, but don’t wait until the end of the month to give a try. Your mileage may vary with Chicagoland Sports Cards promo codes.

Are there any limitations for the Chicagoland Sports Card’s coupons?

The free shipping after spending $29 is applied to your shopping cart on checkout, but keep in mind that any sales tax or other potential promotional codes may not count towards the $299
