    Question Help needed on 2008-09 SPx (Base/Radiance/Spectrum)

    Base
    Radiance /25
    Spectrum /1

    It's too hard to tell the difference between them from pictures online so...
    I was hoping someone had these actually in hand and could tell me if there is ANY difference in the cards other than the serial numbering.

    Other year SPx issues have claimed to be Spectrum and there was absolutely ZERO difference from base other than the added serial number stamp.

    Any info on these parallels and if the foiling/finish changes would be great, Thanks!!!

    spectrum might have mutiple patches for the #1/1 and radiance has just one patch and 2 jerseys and the base is th #/599 or 699 if your talknig about the rookies

    for the actual base cards....the #/25 has a gold foil while the #1/1 has a platinum rainbow foil(more shiny)

    for the base non auto RC cards....the radiance is gold...and the spectrum #1/1 is a but more platinum shiny...

    Thanks for the reply...
    So are you talking about the overall card front or just the lettering/logo/serial number?

    Don't know if ti could be help you. In hands, spectrum have a foil a little bit more brillant than radiance, but it's not very easy to see that in the first time.

    The only diference for me comes from color scripts only



    Hope that helped you

    Hey Matthew (nice name, by the way!):

    With Chris Douglas-Roberts' cards from 08-09 SPX, the base (home and away) /599 have single color swatches in both the S, P and X (sometimes a pinstripe in one of them). In the /25 Radiance ones, the X is usually a patch. I have seen a 1/1 Spectrum awhile back, but I don't remember what the jersey/patch swatches were like.
