The 1964 set included a first for Topps, coins. And these weren't the cheap plastic ones that Armour or Salada used. No, these are metal. The Cubs have six coins in the base set of 120 coins. The All-Star set has just one Cub among the 44.
There are six players among the seven Cubs coins as Ron Santo has a regular and All-Star coin. And four of the six players are in the Hall of Fame.
1964 Topps Coins the greatest underrated Topps (or anyone else) non baseball cardboard set of all time
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing these old coins. I wonder why they don't do this today.
