Has anyone ever seen a 1998-99 UD Choice Preview Josef Marha card 3? I am stating to believe this is a myth.

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project. |

I'm not a hockey collector, so please forgive me for asking. But while looking at these sets. What is the difference between them? Looking over a few cards I don't see any obvious differences in the scans.
UD Choice
UD Choice Reserve
UD Choice Preview

Thank you avsbruins65 for pointing this out, I do not have this card. Been looking for close to 20 years to complete my set. The error should be corrected.

UD Choice released their hockey, basketball, football (not sure about baseball) series in 3 categories: UD choice Base, preview and reserve. The difference being that the some base cards were stamped Preview or Reserve, same photo, same back.

Wow, okay now on closer look I can barely make out the Preview stamp. Apparently they don't show up well in the scans. Thanks for the explanation. 👍🏻

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

The Preview cards were sold in clear cellophane with a UD Choice band around the middle of the pack. They were not in UD Choice packs. The Preview lettering is gold foil which usually scans black.
Choice Reserve is a parallel to the base set which has a large cracked ice style Choice Reserve logo in the middle of the card for NBA, and repeated words for NHL...it also has a Upper Deck hologram on the back where the base and Preview cards do not.
There is a parallel level beyond them that I don't have and is serially numbered. I do not remember what that is called off the top of my head.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

I just looked through a year and a half of old price guides. The set was originally 60 cards, and then expanded 50 cards to 110. We have 111 listed. I also believe the Marha does not exist.
Edit to add: I have put in the IR needed to remove the image (and added a note to Admin to remove the card completely and change the Total Cards).
