===Essential Credentials===


Each of the 120 base cards has two Essential Credential parallels: Now and Future.  The production of each Essential Credentials Now matches that of the card's sequential number, while the Essential Credentials Future is the card's sequential-number subtracted from 121.
Similar to the [[1998_E-X_2001#Essential_Credentials|1998 Essential Credentials set]], there were once again were two types of Essential Credentials parallels: Now and Future.  In total, each player had 121 serial-numbered Essential Credentials cards produced; however, the specific number of Now and Future versions produced for each player varied. 
 
For example, Ken Griffey Jr. is card #17 in the set.  Just like any player in the set, Griffey has 121 total Essential Credentials cards that are serial-numbered.  Specifically, Griffey had 17 Essential Credential Nows (matching his card number in the set) and 104 Essential Credentials Futures (121 - 17 = 104) produced.  


For example: Jim Thome is card #35 in the base set.  His Essential Credentials Now card is serial-numbered to 35 copies, but his Future is numbered to 86.  Pat Burrell has 104 Now's, but only 17 Future's.

The serial-numbering for the Essential Credentials Now parallel set mirrored numbering of the base set such that card #1 in the set was serial-numbered to 1, #2 was serial numbered to 2, etc. The arrangement of players in the base set placed the top current stars in the game first, semi-stars next, minor-stars after, and the young stars last - thus, the established players who were starring "Now" in the game featured the lowest serial-numbering in the Essential Credentials Now set.
 
Essential Credentials Now featured a silver theme finish to the card. For each player in this parallel, the team-colored holographic foil from the base design remained but the acetate layer was silver and opaque.  Additionally, the player's nameplate, "E-X Century" logo, and position text were given a silver holographic "shading"-foil finish.  "Essential Credentials Now" was printed on the back, along with the serial number.

The serial-numbering for the Essential Credentials Future parallel was determined by subtracting the player's card number in the base set from 121.  Again, due to the arrangement of players in the base set, the top current stars were featured first while the young stars were featured last - thus, the potential "Future" stars of the game featured the lowest serial-numbering in the Essential Credentials Future set.
 
Essential Credentials Future featured a gold theme finish to the card. For each player in this parallel, the team-colored holographic foil from the base design remained but the acetate layer was gold and opaque.  Additionally, the player's nameplate, "E-X Century" logo, and position text were given a gold holographic "shading"-foil finish.  "Essential Credentials Now" was printed on the back, along with the serial number.

Description

1999 E-X Century was produced by Fleer/Skybox and was a 120-card set distributed exclusively to Hobby outlets. For a fourth consecutive year, this brand continued its theme of depth on a card through the use of multiple card stock layers. Similar to the previous year's set, acetate was the foundation for each base card: The "top" layer featured the player photo over a colored holographic crescent that accented the player's team colors. This layer was embedded in the the transparent, uncolored "bottom" acetate layer, which featured the player nameplate and position in silver holographic foil, his team's logo, and the "E-X Century" logo in etched foil; additionally, this same layer of acetate also featured a shadow of the player's nameplate and an enlarged shadow of the player's team logo that was offset to create the illusion of a 3-D effect on the acetate. Due to the majority of the card being acetate, the card back was a non-holographic mirror image of the front.

The set contained a 30-card Rookie short-printed subset (91-120) that was inserted at a rate of 1:2 packs. The only notable Rookie Card in the set was of Pat Burrell.

The numbering of the base set was subjectively arranged to have top current stars in the game featured first in the set, semi-stars next, minor-stars after, and the young stars featured last - this arrangement was key to the serial-numbering rationale for the Essential Credentials parallel sets.

Distribution

18 packs per box, three cards per pack (MSRP: $5.99). Hobby exclusive.

Inserts and parallels were usually the 2nd/middle card in the pack.

Parallels

Essential Credentials

Similar to the 1998 Essential Credentials set, there were once again were two types of Essential Credentials parallels: Now and Future. In total, each player had 121 serial-numbered Essential Credentials cards produced; however, the specific number of Now and Future versions produced for each player varied.

For example, Ken Griffey Jr. is card #17 in the set. Just like any player in the set, Griffey has 121 total Essential Credentials cards that are serial-numbered. Specifically, Griffey had 17 Essential Credential Nows (matching his card number in the set) and 104 Essential Credentials Futures (121 - 17 = 104) produced.

Essential Credentials Now:

George-Lombard.jpg?id=3aefee30-c5f2-4e29-973d-9d12cb6bb993&size=original&side=front.jpg George-Lombard.jpg?id=3aefee30-c5f2-4e29-973d-9d12cb6bb993&size=original&side=back&.jpg

The serial-numbering for the Essential Credentials Now parallel set mirrored numbering of the base set such that card #1 in the set was serial-numbered to 1, #2 was serial numbered to 2, etc. The arrangement of players in the base set placed the top current stars in the game first, semi-stars next, minor-stars after, and the young stars last - thus, the established players who were starring "Now" in the game featured the lowest serial-numbering in the Essential Credentials Now set.

Essential Credentials Now featured a silver theme finish to the card. For each player in this parallel, the team-colored holographic foil from the base design remained but the acetate layer was silver and opaque. Additionally, the player's nameplate, "E-X Century" logo, and position text were given a silver holographic "shading"-foil finish. "Essential Credentials Now" was printed on the back, along with the serial number.


Essential Credentials Future:

George-Lombard.jpg?id=084b4be2-795a-474a-be43-8daf6f09c85c&size=original&side=front.jpg George-Lombard.jpg?id=084b4be2-795a-474a-be43-8daf6f09c85c&size=original&side=back&.jpg

The serial-numbering for the Essential Credentials Future parallel was determined by subtracting the player's card number in the base set from 121. Again, due to the arrangement of players in the base set, the top current stars were featured first while the young stars were featured last - thus, the potential "Future" stars of the game featured the lowest serial-numbering in the Essential Credentials Future set.

Essential Credentials Future featured a gold theme finish to the card. For each player in this parallel, the team-colored holographic foil from the base design remained but the acetate layer was gold and opaque. Additionally, the player's nameplate, "E-X Century" logo, and position text were given a gold holographic "shading"-foil finish. "Essential Credentials Now" was printed on the back, along with the serial number.

For the sake of brevity, the individual serial-number production figures for each card are not listed here.
