Question for Modern collectors

Which of the low# modern cards does PSA allow into the registry for player sets? I can never remember the rule on this. For some reason, I'm thinking that the Allen & Ginter bazooka backs, which are #'d to 25 don't make it in because they are too rare. Something north of 25 is the cutoff?

    Not True!

    1/1 cards will make it in the player's master set. Basic and Collector Issues sets and Basic sets a 1/1 probably won't allow the card unless it is a base type card.

    I can show you example of a card that is 1/1 that is in the Derek Jeter Master Set.

    PSA does have a rule of something like 3 or more is needed to make it in to a master set.

    twiley -- to your point, I'm pretty confident that a 1/1 was requested by a collector, and PSA let it go in the Master Set because they are not familiar with the production run. If you asked them to remove it, I am sure that they would.
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    Here is the entry. I won't request to have it removed.

    *2008 TOPPS ALLEN & GINTER DEREK JETER MINI-WOOD 1 OF 1

    It is in red and when you move your mouse over it a pop up info box appears and says

    *This item is optional and not calculated in the grade or the percent completion of the set.

    It doesn't bother me to have it listed. Plus I could care less about the master set. I am after the DJ basic set.

    Usually 3 or more of a particular card is added to the player set registry.
