2016 Topps Update Yount Checklist and Gallery

While the Milwaukee Brewers only have 6 base cards in the set and most of the inserts feature Ryan Braun, Robin does have 5 cards to chase.  From the fairly easy to get 3000 Hits Club base inserts and the unnumbered Medallion parallel card, to much more limited Medallion parallels and the autographed version.  These have been added too Robin's running 2016 checklist bring up the total to 158, not counting all the 5x7 card sets, I'll try to track those all down later to add.

Here is the checklist and image gallery

2016 Topps Series 2 MLB Debut Medallion Manurelic

Year: 2016

Manufacturer: Topps

Set: Flagship, Series 2

Card Type: Insert, Manurelic

Insert set: MLB Debut Medallions

Card Number: MLBD2M-9

One of these bad boys finally made it's way into the collection.  I had been biding my time and finally found one at a very affordable price.  People go either way on these manurelics. I'm torn.  I like them when like this card it's inserted as a bonus in blaster boxes.  I don't like it when they count as a hit in my hobby box.  

It's a nice looking card celebrating Robin's first appearance in a MLB game.  I was not quite a year old.  The card is thick and the medallion pretty hefty.  I like the vintage Yount image. Heck that could be from 1974.

2007 Milwaukee Journal Sentinel 1982 Commemorative Medallion

Manufacturer: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Set: Milwaukee Brewers 1982 American League Champions Medallion Collection

Year:  2007

Card Number: NNO

Card Type: Medallion/Coin

Here is a great oddball I picked up a few years ago.  These medallions commemorate the 1982 Milwaukee Brewers American League Championship.  The set consisted of 23 medallions.  You had to buy a paper, clip the coupon, find a store that still had these in stock, and hand over $2.99. Coupons were put in papers from April 23, 2007 through May 18, 2007. There was also an album you could put all your medallions in. I'm not sure if the albums were inserted in the papers or were available where the Medallions where sold.  This set had all the big names and some names you probably didn't know unless you're a Brewers fan.  Rollie Fingers, Paul Molitor, Cecil Cooper, and more all had coins.

I'm not sure what day Robin's medallion coupon came in the paper.  A really cool oddball commemorating the best team and season the Brewers ever put together.
