2023 Topps Chrome Hidden Gems
Description
2023 Topps Chrome Hidden Gems is a cross-brand insert set released in various Topps products. The first wave of Hidden Gems was intended for release as part of 2023 Topps Series One. However, it appears that the first wave Hobby and Jumbo packs did not have Hidden Gems.
The first Hidden Gems cards began to emerge out of Series One retail packs, about a month after the product's Hobby release. More Hidden Gems were pulled out of subsequent releases to include 2023 Bowman and 2023 Topps Heritage.
It is unclear if specific Hidden Gems are exclusive to a particular brand, or if all cards are available in all packs.
The stated odds of finding a Hidden Gems are as follows.
- Topps Series One: 1:38,127/Hobby packs; 1:175,023/retail packs; 1:3817/Jumbo packs; 1:26,868/Hanger boxes.
- Bowman: unlisted
- Topps Heritage: 1:44,110/Hobby packs; 1:8000/Hanger boxes
