The 20 Most Valuable Football Cards of the 1990s

The SP sets can be bought very cheap. Even now. I wish I’d bought 1993 years ago. But I do own 1994-1996. With 1995 being my favorite design.

[@tenclubcards]

Great video to start a Monday morning off 😊Some of the O-Lineman on this list are the reason I try and find low serial numbered rookies for players like Quenton Nelson. For the trivia I believe Bledsoe is the only one that will not get in to the HOF, but Vinatieri and Belichick aren't eligible yet but will. I believe technically all four quarterbacks have a ring because Bledsoe was still on the roster when Brady won his first? Thank you for this video Chris, this one was a lot of fun seeing both the junk wax era and the mid late 90s sets featured 👍

[@collectorinvestordealer]

Correct on both!

Chris, I know it’s hard to keep track of all the cards produced over the years, Kurt Warner’s best card may be the playoff contenders finesse gold auto. I know this because I bought the 1/1 years ago and sold it, another major blunder, there are also finesse gold autos of him out of 25. In my opinion the Contenders finesse gold is one of the nicest cards ever produced. Thanks, enjoy your vids.

Dig that Jason Taylor card. Also a big fan of his sister, Joy ;) Man, does she have any cards? If they haven't already, they should make an autographed set of female sports broadcasters. I think it'd do well ;)

[@chrisc4264]

You mentioned in the late 90s most players had like 40 rookie cards each. And yet some think thats the only junk wax era. Justin Herbert alone has over 700 rookies from 2020. Way too many parallels and variables with new stuff in my opinion. I'd rather buy GOATS and undervalued HOFERS like some of these guys. Great work as usual Chris. The Browns firing Belicheck was a typical Browns move. I'm curious also why Topps never did Tiffany sets for football. I bet a 90 Emmitt Smith Tiffany would fetch a ton if they made them back then.

[@collectorinvestordealer]

Good question about tiffany... I am not sure. Topps did it with footbal exactly one year in 1990. But only the main set, not the Traded, so Emmitt does not have one.

[@im11sostfu86]

[@spd214]

Just curious. Does the presence or absence of the protective film make a difference in grading?

[@jerrywalz9056]

It doesn't matter. If the film is on, the film is what gets graded as the surface. If the film is off, the actual surface is what is graded and not having the film is not taken into consideration. The crux is in the reselling. Some buyers want the film on. as they consider that to be an unaltered card. Other byers don't care and just want the card and the grade.

[@TheRealWarez]

It makes no difference when it comes to having the card graded. When it comes to selling the card though, it's a different story. A PSA 10 card with the original protective film will often sell for more than a PSA 10 copy without. More often than not, substantially more $.
