2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball Variations Checklist and Gallery
The 2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball variations give collectors another batch of short-printed cards for top MLB players of the past, present and future.
As always, these can be confusing if you don't know how to distinguish them from the base cards. However, the guide below should help make them very easy to identify.
2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball Variation Set Details
As the lineup was left off the main 2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball checklist, the 2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball variations set must be compiled manually.
The tried-and-true format consists of adding additional base images to the main set. While the base card numbering is the same, the image is different. In some cases, there is a completely different player. These are normally for the retired legends, which often replace a base player from the same franchise.
2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball Variation Pack Odds
The confirmed pack odds for the 2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball variations are shown for a few box formats. By no means does this suggest these are all the possible formats where the cards are found. This is just a snapshot of how rarity can differ.
Unlike Series 1, the third tier of variations (aka SSSP or Ultra SP) is not listed with the pack odds. However, these extremely rare cards are back.
Hobby Odds
- SP - 1:40
- SSP - 1:1,187
Jumbo Odds
- SP - 1:12
- SSP - 1:362
Blaster Odds
- SP - 1:40
- SSP - 1:1,187
Hanger Odds
- SP - 1:9
- SSP - 1:248
2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball Variation Codes
The codes can also be very helpful for the 2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball variations. Flip the card over and refer to the final three digits in the CMP code under the stats.
- Base Cards end #423
- SP Short Print Variations end #441
- SSP Super Variations end #442
- SSSP Ultra Variations end #443
- Advanced Stat Parallels end #444 (#/300)
2021 Topps Series 2 Baseball Advanced Stat Parallels
The annual Advanced Stat parallels are another option that can seem confusing. While the code is different from the base, these are treated as a base parallel since they cover nearly the entire set. The main difference is the sabermetric stat listing on the back. Also, each card is numbered out of 300 copies, easily confirming what you have.
