Just wondering why the silver-foil parallel cards are not included among the parallel-set checklists on this site. Or am I not understanding something?

Silver foil is listed under Mail-In sets with the following description:
"Collect and combine 10 copies of any individual 2022-23 Upper Deck Series One Hockey digital Base Set card (#1-200) or 5 copies of any individual Young Guns card (#201-250) on Upper Deck e-Pack® to receive an e-Pack exclusive Silver Foil Parallel of that card with the ability to have the physical card mailed to you."

Thanks for the quick response but I'm pulling these out of packs, hence my confusion.

Your pulling base cards with a foilboard background?

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I am. I didn't think it was that unusual at first because UD typically incorporates a foil parallel set in their base hockey sets... most often at a rate of four to six parallel cards per box. All along, I was wondering why this parallel set is not listed here. I can't help but wonder if I'm not understanding something, lol!

Boxes do not mention Silver Foil parallel. I just watched a full hobby box break and there were zero silver foil base cards but plenty of silver foil inserts.

So, the mystery continues! I've pulled six foil base cards from my box so far with only four packs remaining in the box. Appreciate all the feedback thus far.

You probably need to post images in the Mystery Card forum so others can see what you see

I could do that, but... and I'm not trying to be difficult... foilboard cards often don't scan that well and they are just foil versions of the base cards. On the other hand, I guess the point is to put it "on the record" so to speak so I may do that. I didn't know there was a Mystery Card forum so thanks for the tip!

Official name is Card identification forum. No one is thinking you are being difficult, but hard to help if we don't see what you see.
