This set is a parallel version of the standard set. The difference is a reflective gold foil Artist's Proof logo on the front. Series 1 cards also featured an Artist's Proof logo on the back; this logo did not appear on series 2 card backs. The Pinnacle and player name bearing icon, which is gold on normal cards, is printed with a more reflective gold foil on these inserts. Series two production made this feature more bold than in series 1. Cards were inserted at a rate of 1:36 packs in both series 1 and 2, 14 card packs. There are no Artist's Proof versions of the first series checklists, however, there is an Artist's Proof version of the second series checklists. Estimated production of these cards varies; one press release suggests "less than 700 sets", while wrappers state "less than 500". [Collapse]
