Help, Does anyone know what these are and worth

Bearsnum34

I went to a garage sale today and I found in a box 3 cards gold plated of bonds, griffey jr. and thomas. they were issued by topps in 1995 in a box and the set is 3 cards and each card is very heavy it says topps finest on it yet they are made of very heavy material. On the very bottom it says holochrome. Does anyone know what these are worth? again , all 3 came in the long box and the set of 3 were issued via a mail-in.

any help would be appreciated.

they were part of the Collector's Club promotion that Topps ran in the mid 90's. it was $40 or $50 for a membership, and you got a newsletter, a tshirt, and a multi-sport Member's Only Stadium Club set. plus opportunities to purchase special Club sets only available to members. this was one of those promotions. i think they were offered for $50 for the 6 card set, so they're probably worth $8-$10 apiece

thanks, Ill hold on to the thomas, bonds, and griffey jr. The 3 cards are really sharp looking and for 5.00 for all three, (still in original box they came in)..it wasnt a bad buy.
