I know they are not on the downloadable list from Topps.com, however the Chasing History inserts have two parallels which need checklists added. They are numbered the same and contain the same cards. They are not serialized. Thanks. CHASING HISTORY PARALLEL CARDS: Foil - Exclusive to retail jumbo packs, Gold Foil - Exclusive to 72-card retail hanger boxes.

Does anyone know how to tell the difference between the regular Chasing History card and the Silver parallel? I only have one in hand, Frank Robinson and it has silver foil and has a rainbow foil like shimmer on the right of the card front. The scan of the regular and the silver foil look a lot alike and I don't know what to look for. The regular scan looks the same with just a slightly darker background which is hard to differentiate with only one card.

-------------------------------

I'm mostly organizing over adding right now.

If it has a foil finish in the player photo area, it's a Silver Foil.

According to Baseball Card Pedia there are 4 versions of the Chasing History insert set. http://baseballcardpedia.com/index.php/2013_Topps#Chasing_History

I've never sseen evidence of a 4th version. BCP is often incorrect. Can you show us the 4th version? ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024).

I would venture to guess that "Holographic Foil" and "Silver Foil" are the same thing. I have never seen evidence of a 4th version.
