Default 2014 Topps Sparkle Variation...

Hi all,

The last few days I've looked at some 2014 George Springer Topps Update Rookies and all the different parrallels that we're produced. One such parallel that caught my eye was the "sparkle" variation. I've seen these with the added sp or ssp designation. Upon further inspection I only found two copies of Springer's "sparkle" variation for $299 and $599 respectively. I noticed that with other cards, most typically non rookie the "sparkle" cards can be found pretty cheap but with a rookie card like 2015 Fransisco Lindor with the added sparkle, the price is upwards of $1,000 for a graded copy.

Seeing those prices was pretty surprising for a card that I've heard very little about. What I'd like to know is what was the print run on these and whether are the valued in the hobby and do they have a place with a player such as Springer or Lindor's key rookie cards when colecting? Thanks in advance!
