1999 Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems /50

I'm so excited to knock off one big one from the "Buy It When I See It" list. My first Larkin PMG!!!

These cards are gorgeous in hand. I had always thought I preferred the 1998 PMG, and I still think they are beautiful, but these shine in a very unique way. Not the bold molten gold of a 96 Mirror Gold, or the pristine smoothness of a Crusade, or the crystal clear reflection of a Limited Exposure, but a gritty shimmer that gives the feeling that something magical lurks just below the surface. I can't stop looking at it.

Barry Larkin has all 3. I was fortunate enough that a dealer in a facebook group I'm in acquired the whole Larkin set and posted them all for sale at once. I snapped them up as soon as I saw the post.
Great score! Now all you need is as many of the variants as you can get of the other 69 players.

Wanted to post about this auction sale from Goldin's of a 1998 Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems Barry Larkin. It came up for discussion in the Barry Larkin Facebook group, and the comment was that this is the highest priced Larkin card in a public sale. $7500 hammer price, but with buyers premium it comes to $9150. (sorry about the crappy photo. click the link for a better image)
