Found three of this card in a mixed box of mostly hockey cards. Has copyright 2001 on the back. The same card with a 2002 copyright is in the 2002 and 2003 Topps baseball set as an insert, and a similar card with a different front and a copyright 2001 is in the 2001 Topps baseball set as an insert. This card is a bit of a hybrid, but I can't find it in the database anywhere. Does anyone have this card or know which set it belongs to?

Go to Topps 2001 Baseball set. You will find it on the insert page.

Sorry about that. You are absolutely right. I think it may be from 2001 Opening Day. Unfortunately, there isn't a photo of the card in the database. I did a search for all NNO cards in Topps 2001 of all types. That card is the most logical one I found.

Copyright year doesn't mean that's the set it belongs to, especially with Topps usually releasing cards at the end of the prior year. Most of those Trade Nights cards are listed as standalone inserts in the Topps sets around that time, just gotta find the correct spot.

And sport. As we can see on the card itself, all 4 sports are covered on the front (football, baseball, basketball, & hockey).

I have some of those, and I believe mine came from 2001/02 O-Pee-Chee hockey card packs. They come in handy, I use them as the bottom card in those plastic hinged snap lid 50 or 100 count holders. Saves the real cards from getting dings on their corners.

I have added the card to a (rare) 1-card set in the Topps release and cross-linked a set in the O-Pee-Chee release to the set (can't do that with single insert cards, hence the reason I did it in a 1-card set). Thanks to @BuccaneersDen for the assist on this one!

Thanks. I noticed the one in the 2001 Topps hockey, but since there was no picture, and with the baseball one having a different front, I wasn't sure if it was the right one. I'll add my scans to the Topps hockey. Are you sure the OPC set would have the same card?

I literally just added the card in Topps and notified you through the IR.
Yes, MANY of the inserts in 01-02 OPC were exactly the same as the Topps counterpart. If we find that there wasa difference, we can make that change.
