1993 Upper Deck Derek Jeter Rookie

I have a gold and a bunch of base -- even held side by side it's damn near impossible to tell the difference. I wish I could help more but you're not alone here!

Ok Thanks. Looks like PSA is the only one to indicate Gold or not?

Thanks,

Sam

Here's my gold (left) and silver side by side. There is the slightest difference under a bright light.

Are the holograms different?

I cannot see any difference between the two of them.

I tried messing with the scanner settings to see if I could get the gold tint to show but no luck. When it's tilted under a lamp or by a window you can see the golden tint much more clearly.

(I personally think it's a silly parallel but was a bit of a Jeter completionist for a while so I couldn't turn it down!)

Understood!

Thanks for the reply.

You have to look at the holograms at an angle to tell the difference, and they should appear either completely silver or completely gold.

Here is a silver holo Jeter at an angle:



Here is a gold holo Jeter along with a gold holo griffey for comparison:





Jeter silver & gold side by side:



Hope that helps!

Ok thanks by looking at your images seams like the one I have looks closer to the one on your left? When I tilt the card back and forth seam to have some gold in it but again I am color blind?
