Topps - Premier Gold 2015 (09) - Golden Boot Die-Cut Autographs


2015-16

Premier Gold 2015
Topps
150 base cards

An illustrated checklist. There are two cards missing at the moment which will be added when images become available. It's quite possible that the Didier Drogba and Steven Gerrard cards are produced in smaller quantities than some of the other cards in this section.
UPDATE (13-02-2016 19:25):  Steven Gerrard added, found by Kirres.
UPDATE (25-03-2016 17:31):  Didier Drogba added.
UPDATE (28-03-2016 12:22):  Diego Costa replaced with a 1/1 Premier Gold card.
UPDATE (28-03-2016 12:52):  Black parallel version added to the checklist and issue numbers added for the 11 regular cards. I'm still trying to track down Black versions of the Mesut Ozil and Steven Gerrard cards. Can anyone help?

Esso - (ESV-2) F.A. Cup Centenary Medals 1872-1972 (02) - Error - Tottenham Hotspur / Everton


1972

(ESV-2) F.A. Cup Centenary Medals 1872-1972
Esso
30 medals

I omitted to include two error coins when I published the checklist yesterday. I've seen a number of the Spurs / Everton coins but I've only ever come across one instance of the Aston Villa / Newcastle United error. If there are two there are probably more. Once a one-club collector has his club's coin there's no need to check any others and I presume many dealers wouldn't know whether the wins listed on the backs of the coins are right or wrong. Though the back of the Aston Villa error coin includes Aston Villa as one of the beaten finalists!
