A bevy of shiny offerings to tell you about here, combining precious metals and hockey cards, presented here is this collection that includes a group of eight (8) mid-1990s Highland Mint limited-edition silver mint cards as well as three (3) limited-edition bronze mint cards, a 1994-95 Upper Deck Wayne Gretzky "802" Limited-Edition 24K Gold Card and lastly, a 1994 Environment card of Gretzky as well. Starting with the Highland Mint silver cards, included are the examples of Bobby Orr, Doug Gilmour, Teemu Selanne, Brett Hull, Felix Potvin, Jeremy Roenick, Steve Yzerman and Bobby Hull, with all expect for the Orr serial numbered out of 500 while the Orr itself is part of a run of 1000 examples. All housed in plastic cases that lists the player as well as what number that particular one is in the run over the spine, the card found on the interior is encased in a screw down holder while a COA is placed opposite it, decreeing that each card is 4.25 troy ounces of .999 fine silver. Additionally, all the cards appear in excellent condition. For the bronze mint cards, included are examples of Mario Lemieux, Steve Yzerman and Gordie Howe. With the Lemieux and Howe both out of a run of 5000 pieces, numbered "0181/5000" and "0520/5000" respectively, the Yzerman is numbered "0425/2500" with each card in the same sort of case as those mentioned above and including a COA listing the cards as "limited-edition bronze mint cards". Of note, each is licensed by Topps. Additionally, from Upper Deck comes a snazzy golden card that pays tribute to Wayne's 802nd goal that is housed in a close-to-one-inch-thick screwdown holder. Serial numbered "44/3500" on the reverse, cool to tilt back and forth offering to see Wayne's image, it is important to note that the card is NOT entirely made of 24K gold. Remaining in good condition, light scratches are seen over both sides of the thick plastic holder. Lastly, to round out the collection is the 1994 Enviromint example that is once again a piece that pays homage to his 802nd goal, the limited-edition bronze card is stamped "195" over the lower front and is part of a run of 18,510. Displaying the logos of the Kings and Oilers on the reverse along with "The Great One", "802" and "NHL All-Time Leading Goal Scorer - March 23, 1994" imagery of Gretzky is found over the front of the card which shows some wear to the edges and surfaces.
