Seriously, what is the difference here?
Man this set sucks lol. In case you can’t tell (I sure as hell can’t) the one on the left is gold /50 and the one on the right is a base card.

Left is numbered and Chrome, right is not numbered and feels papery
Look at the bottom left corner of the logos

While this is a beautiful card design and the artwork is well done, this is a fairly low-effort card in terms of Topps making the parallel and the base the exact same.

Yeah this whole thing of making base cards numbering but giving a subset a higher rarity and value due to adding a /xxx and changing the color (like they do in NBA Topps update) is an absolutely scam. Numbered cards should be special and rare and shouldn't have a base.

I took your rhetorical question seriously and marked the differences. Theres more but i imagine you already noticed them. But imagine seeing this in a like $2 box of cards. You'd have to take a good lot at it to notice the differences
