Parallels

Inserts
1993 Finest Buybacks
To commemorate Finest's tenth anniversary, Topps bought back one 199-card 1993 Finest base set and randomly inserted it into 2003 Finest packs. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your view of buybacks), Topps did not mark or stamp any of the cards. You got, essentially, a 1993 Finest common.
