For Topps Prime (any year), the difference for the veterans is indistinguishable on a screen. The hobby cards are high gloss and thicker than the retail cards. The Prime retail cards are the same thickness as the flagship Topps cards. The hobby version is about 3x thicker and very shiny/glossy. I do believe that Strata cards are the same way.
