Description

2000 Fleer Focus is a 250-card set released in April, 2000. The set features 225-player cards (cards 1-225), and a 25-card Prospect subset, issued in two separate varieties. Each Prospect is serial-numbered to 3999 copies. The first 999 of each of these cards feature a portrait shot on the front of the featured prospect. The next 3000 cards issued have an action shot on the front of the featured prospect. Due to how this set was issued, a more common "Action" cards are considered the "base cards, while the "Portrait" Prospects are a partial-parallel.

There are no notable rookies in the set.
