The Sapphire card set is Panini's attempt to make valuable embedded precious metal/gem card. Located near the bottom of the card (in the area that represents home plate) is a small (very small) gemstone. There are three different variations available; including an Sapphire (#/15), Emerald (#/10) and a Diamond (#/1).
Certainly, this set is suppose to be the premier find in packs. Unfortunately, they haven't sold too well on eBay. Over the past week I've seen the Roy Campanella and Jackie Robinson gem cards (sapphire or emerald) sell from between $20.00 to $50.00 a piece. At these kind of prices I just might have to chase them just for the heck of it. Check out the Dodger cards below.
