2008 Topps Platinum Question
Hey all. Hoping one of you knows if there was a 2008 Topps Platinum base set. The only ones I could find are all listed as 1/1 but there doesn't seem to be any serial number on the card. I'm working on a trade involving one of these and neither one of us is sure if the card is a 1/1 or just a regular base that, for whatever reason, isn't listed in the OPG. Obviously, both of us want to make sure we're getting a fair deal. Any info the trading community has on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

RE: 2008 Topps Platinum Question
do you have a player and card number and/or scans?
(im guessing it is probably 2009, not 2008)

RE: 2008 Topps Platinum Question
The first actual Topps Platinum football set didn't come out til 2009.
However, in the 2008 Topps Football set, there were parallels. Gold #/2008, Black #/53 and Platinum #1/1
So...if it's a 2008 Topps parallel Platinum, it is a 1/1. If it's a 2009, it's just a base card.
Good luck!

Thanks for the replies. I don't have a scan of it because it isn't my card. It's one I am trading for and the other trader is a bit uncertain about what they have. Turns out it may not even be a Topps Platinum. He thinks he has it figured out. Thank you all for your feedback.
