What 2006 Brandon Marshall card would be used for the PSA registry set?

Brandon Marshall is going to be doing a local signing here next week. I would like to get a card signed but I want to get the card that would be used for the PSA registry if he were to ever get into the HOF. I have done a decent amount of research and these seem to be my best choices to choose from. As of now the registry seems to prefer Topps Chrome or Topps Chrome refractor rc's. For those of you that don't know, a card is not eligible for the registry if it is a factory auto, relic/patch card, or #'ed less than 999. Here are the choices I think would be the best choices but I would like to get some opinions on what other people think

-2006 Topps Chrome- $1.00
- 2006 Topps Chrome Special edition Refractor- $5.00
- 2006 Finest- $1.00
-2006 Playoff Prestige Brandon Marshall #161 Short print (I'm not sure what the print run was but I would have to think it was more than 999- $8.00+

I know that the prestige is obviously the most expensive card but the registry set seems to favor Topps chrome/ chrome refractors cards for the registry sets.

If some people could please give me their opinion it would be greatly appreciated because I really don't want to have to get a second card signed in the future if he ever gets into the HOF.

    My guess would be the 2006 Topps Chrome base card (non-refractor, non-auto).
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    If the Playoff Prestige is the most expensive non-autographed card, then I think it should be the card that we would use for the registry.

    Definitely not the refractor - that's a parallel rather than a base card. Beyond that, what Greg said.

    fyi cards like se special edition that are scarcer multiples of the same base card are not allowed either. so scratch the tc se

    Even though Greg may be 100% right......They have been sticking with a manuf and not necessarily most costly (like the rules do require)

    I believe the topps chrome would be the one.

    tough call. Since the modern cards are very shinny..make sure u bring ur own black sharpie.

    good luck

    he had a good year.

    also, Greg knows tons more than me on auto'd cards so take that into consideration
