2001 Fleer Authority

From BaseballCardPedia.com


Description[edit]

2001 Fleer Authority is a 150-card set released in December, 2001. The product is known for being one of the first (along with 2001 Topps Reserve) to include pre-graded rookie cards.

The last 50-cards in the base set consist of a Prospects subset with each Prospect serial-numbered to 2001 copies. Approximately 80% of the production run of each Prospects card were NOT inserted into packs. Instead, they were submitted by Fleer to Beckett Grading Services (BGS). Each 20-pack Hobby box contained two individually wrapped pre-graded Prospects cards, each graded no lower than "BGS 8" (NM-MT).

Distribution[edit]

20 packs of five cards plus two BGS-Graded Prospects cards per box. Hobby only.
