Its a 2003 Toppstotal printing plate, His 2000 toppstraded is his rookie but his 2003 topps flagship they still call his rookie and the toppstotal, its a generalization technically Miggy was signed in 99 by the marlins reguardless im happy with the printing plate and gonna sub it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest was the 2003 Traded which said "Prospect" on it. Secondly, despite the set consisting of 990 cards, Miguel Cabrera wasn't in the 2003 Topps Total set. Are you sure you don't have a 2004 Topps Total card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 2000 Topps and 2000 Topps Chrome are considered his true rookies though. His situation is a little odd because it wasn't typical in those days for them to introduce a player into the base sets or even Traded sets until they had already made their MLB debut. I'm not sure what the reasoning for that was. It's also not uncommon for people to designate non-true rookies as the sort of agreed upon rookie, so the 2003 still has plenty of value since it's tied to his actual MLB debut. micky 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get confused with the toppstraded I didnt know there was a toppstraded chrome, then miggy has a card called royals n rookies from 2000 and strangley has a 2000 Topps traded on card auto dont know how many exist but has to be super rare for that time, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pujols had a weird rookie release. He was added as a short print to 2001 Series 2 Chrome, but it wasn't even on Chrome stock, it was foil (even though the card said Chrome). That's the one that says 'Late Addition' on it that you mentioned. Then, because that was sort of a release, they released the same card in the Topps Traded Chrome that year (without the 'Late' tag). And the Traded Chrome that year wasn't a full set, it was an SP subset inserted into the paper Traded sets. micky 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator RyanCSG Posted July 22, 2022 Administrator Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Here are some examples of CSG graded printing plates. The label reflects the card number of the printed card from each set. The Ja Morant one reflects the card number from the 2019-20 National Treasure as it is a printing plate for his Personalized card from that set.
