Top 100 Jose Canseco Baseball Cards – 1999 E-X Century Now & Future Parallels
DID YOU KNOW?
Competition from the 90s between card companies was insane, and 1999 E-X Century Essential Credentials was definitely a product of its time. Check out what unique gimmick they did!
Like the previous year, the Essential Credentials parallels came in two flavors. This time, however, the parallels were Silver (NOW), and Gold (FUTURE).
Every player’s two parallels added up to the number of cards (121) in the set. For Jose Canseco, the Silver (NOW) parallels are serial numbered to /67, and the Gold (FUTURE) parallels are serial numbered to /54. 67 + 54 = 121. For Griffey, his Silver (NOW) parallel was numbered to 17, and Gold (FUTURE) parallel was numbered to 104. 17 + 104 = 121.
While I do like the previous year’s Essential Credentials even more than this release, these are extremely special cards, and very hard to come by.
