Bowman Chrome Question for Modern collectors

mcadams

What is the print run on Refractor and XFractor from '03 Bowman Chrome?

Also, what was the 1st year that the 1/1 Superfractors were issued by Bowman?

I dont think either were numbered. Thats being said, you will see some numbered to /130 these were I believe encased cards sealed by Topps as box toppers.

I have an 03 Nick Markakis refractor and like prthd said, its not numbered.

These were introduced to us in 2004, not exactly a "superfractor" but the first 1/1's by Bowman Chrome

red 1/1

I realize they aren't serial numbered, but I was curious about the print run. For a Cano RC, were there 100 Xfractors or 1500 Xfractors printed. Just trying to guage the scarcity.

Find a pack or box, find something serial numbered (gold refractors?), and do some backwards math?

2003 Bowman Chrome Draft (where the Cano rookie is) has X-Fractors serial nubmered to 130.

Here's one on Ebay with pics.

Yes, I've seen that the Xfractors are #'d to 130. The base refractors aren't serial numbered. That is what I'd like to know a print run on, for the various types within Bowman Chorme that are NOT Serial #'d.

Anyone have a pack handy to see what the insertion rate for the refractors was?

We can figure it out from there.
