What's that one (or two) cards in your collection that you never thought you'd have?
For me there are 2.
2004 Steven Jackson SP Authentic RPA Gold #d 10/25
And
2004 Steven Jackson Leaf Certified Materials Mirror Black #d 1/1
Just trying to stir up some conversation!

Total cards = 1,648

I would say my leaf certified shield of fred is the one card I thought I'd never get. I just wanted one shield. The next goal if it is possible is a shield auto but I know quite a few are locked away in the best fred taylor pc krazyie83

Someday I hope I can answer this thread with either one of these:
1976 Topps Walter Payton RC or
1999 Upper Deck Retro INKredible Walter Payton auto
Otherwise probably the Topps Peyton Manning auto. I would never have gone out of my way to pick one up at the price they are at so I'm happy to have one.

I never have opened a pack with a 1/1 card, so it was great to trade for a 1/1 Cordarrelle Patterson auto 2 years ago.

Not super impressive, but I really never thought I'd find a Quincy Carter /25 in the late 2000's. But was able to finish my Quincy Freshman fabric set (base /400, red /250) with the help of someone on Beckett (I think?!).
It's creased, but it's beautiful to me.
I collect the Cowboys nobody else wants...

Thanks! I love these designs! If I someday can afford the money, I may do the set, at least of the SB MVP ones.

I like the patch cards that have multiple types of relics/patches. Nice card!
