eBay listing: https://ebay.us/m/ZBB7K6
This set was Upper Deck’s premium release with a distinctive gold-foil background, diamond-pattern holo/foil elements, embossed Upper Deck logo, and a premium cardstock feel. The Gold parallels were limited to /1500 copies (with other tiers like Silver, Ruby, and rarer ones), making this a mid-tier chase card from the late ’90s.
The year after Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls wrapped their second run, Upper Deck released a set called Black Diamond.
