RE: It took me 15 years but its Finally Mine!!!
For anyone curious about the cards, they were redemption cards in a fairly unpopular product.
The Golds were /200 and inserted 1:950 packs and the silvers were /400 and inserted 1:470 packs... One had to pull and redeem the redemption card in an 8-10 month window from the products release. The cards are silver-plated and gold-plated.
They are not easy to come by, congrats!!!!!
Trying to finish these sets:
1999 Upper Deck Strike Force Quantum /100
2000 Score Complete Players Green/ Blue
2000 Leaf Piece of the Game Preview 4th Down Isaac Bruce
2008 Premier NFL Equipment /25 John Elway
Let me know if you have any available.

Congrats! I never thought about how long I have looked for a card. Have you actively been looking for it the whole time?

Yes and no. I go on tangents like once a week I look and then I did one of those notify me things on ebay. And I then went to the once a week mispelled route. I always look for them when offered trades. I feel sorry for the old man he has the silver and bronze of Emmitt needs the gold.

15 years is a long time to wait for a card to get to you. Most people freak out if they don't get it in 3 days. Did the seller send it by mule?
Nice card, and the trio looks great together!

Congrats on finishing that bad boy up!!! I just finished mine last year, was looking for the silver forever. I picked up my gold one over on another forum in a trade 2 years ago, the bronze one I have about 200 copies of, and have no idea what to do with them. Here is mine

You know that's funny the Gold is supposed to be the Harder one to find. But with me like you it was the silver.

Yeah I got a trade offer out of no where for the gold, the guy just messaged me about it. The silver I had not seen in a very long time and then all of a sudden 2 popped up for sale at the same time.
Finally Completed!!!
