I don't believe the show exclusive embossed Pacific cards are allowed to be listed here.

I believe they can be listed here, but there is no confirmed checklist to go by, which is why they aren't. Perhaps they would add the set with confirmation of each card by using the inaccuracies link.

If they were a checklisted set that was given out at these shows and if the checklist can be found they can be listed. If these embossings were one of thos "Bring any card from this set you want to the show and we will stamp it for you," type gimmicks then no it cannot be listed.

The Pacific Trading Cards "Get Embossed" Program
Beginning in 1997 and running through 2003, card manufacturer Pacific Trading Cards offered a unique collecting opportunity at major hobby trade shows. Collectors were allowed to open packs of Pacific cards at their booth, then have one card from each pack embossed with a special show stamp (a metal die that left a raised imprint on the card). At the end of the show, the die stamp was destroyed to prevent additional cards being made. The pack opener could choose whatever one card in their pack they wanted stamped - usually superstar cards were chosen or in some instances player collector's favorite players. Cards were embossed "on the spot" at the show.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

These cannot be listed as I witnessed non-Pacific cards being stamped at these shows. Therefore, there is no checklist, anything in the world could've been stamped, including, if someone was stupid enough, an entire T206 set. No checklist, no listing here.

Though it has been said over and over again how and why they can't be listed here, what might be more helpful to you is that if you have any of these embossed cards in your collection, you can go to the original card's page, enter a "Detailed Add" and in the Comments block, enter "Embossed". This will annotate the card in your collection as to it being so just like one could do for autographs they acquired of their own.
Hope this helps.

You can also in "Detailed Add" or "Edit Details" add your own personal "Tag(s)".
