Topps’ Golden Greats should be a heavy favorite
Posted Jan 27, 2012 by Bob D'Angelo

Topps is presenting 16 sweet cards that are pure gold.
Some of the bigger pulls from this year’s Series 1 set will be 16 special cards made of 14-karat gold. Called Solid Golden Greats, the cards will be pulled as a redemption card and will only be available in hobby boxes.
Some of the legends that will be included are Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron.
And if you like graded cards, these inserts are up your alley. Topps got together with Beckett Grading Services to present the cards in an exclusive Topps slab. Each slabbed card includes the insert name, player name and 1/1 numbering.
Getting one of those cards certainly will be a hefty addition to anyone’s collection.
