Another Juan Gonzalez Holy Grail type pick-up
1990 Donruss Aqueous test issue Juan Gonzalez. I've been looking for one of these for about 3 years, and I always just seem to miss them on ebay. PWCC had card PSA 8, and I had a feeling it was gonna cost me. It did. I probably over payed (And according to the Beckett Value, I did), but I just never see them pop up. I won the auction today, so I guess I bought myself a nice little gift:

Nice pick up. How does one tell if they are an aqueous test card? Is the back different?

Nice pick up but you have to remember, if there aren't any recent sales Beckett can't alter their pricing. Some cards are super sought after and if found, people will pay dearly for but Beckett has no way of adjusting pricing off of what was last available to them.

For those wondering the difference is in the backs, as shown here.

1990 Donruss is the first cards I started collecting so I hold a soft spot for them still. The David Justice RC was my favorite from the set.
