Atlantic City National

Playoff Prestige was one of many Donruss-Playoff brands in which a special parallel was printed for the 2003 National Sports Collectors Convention in Atlantic City, NJ. In order to receive a specially-embossed parallel, collectors had to open three packs of 2003 Playoff Prestige at the Donruss-Playoff corporate booth. Atlantic City National parallels exist for all 200 Prestige series cards, and each is serial-numbered to five copies, with a one-of-one Xtra Points Purple also available.
