1999 Pacific

Description

1999 Pacific is a 500-card set released in December, 1998. The base set features 450 cards plus 50 "head shot" variations. For the first time in this brand's history, all cards were printed exclusively in English. Pacific would create a new brand called "Crown Collection" as their designated bilingual product. Rather confusingly, from 1993-98 the Pacific flagship product was also known as Crown Collection.

Distribution

36 packs per box, ten cards per pack (MSRP: $2.19). 20 boxes per case.
