Just curious. Why are there 2 Cal Ripken NNO in the Ripken Collection under Collector's Choice? I know that this collection came out in 3 different main sets i.e. Collector's Choice, Upperdeck and SP. I've looked at both and see no differences.

You need to be a lot more descriptive than this. I have no idea what you are talking about here. Some text info or pics or links are needed to answer the question.

There is a difference on the front of the card. One has the Collector's Choice and Upper Deck logo, the other has the Upper Deck logo only.

Edit: One of these cards was mentioned in a Mystery Card thread: https://www.tradingcarddb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/M/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=10833#62371

bbcards - three things

1 - You'll get better response if you create a forum thread within the set you're asking questions about. I have moved this one for you. In the future, just click on the Forums link within the set (even if it's gray, it's active, gray just means there aren't any threads for that set yet). There's a big button on the page that is something like "Start Thread" or New Post.

2 - The 96 CC set was released in 2 Series. One card is from Series 1, the other from Series 2. That information was already right there in the Release Notes:

3 - If you had navigated to the 2 cards' pages, you would have seen that Note2 had information actually specifying which ones were which.

I hope this helps you in the future.

Thanks for the help. The only reason I couldn't see the difference is because the front of the cards are not that clear. Besides, there's no magifyer on these cards so that I could move around on the card.

Magnifier was just introduced earlier this year and is only good for images uploaded AFTER that introduction.
