Help!!!! I've opened my 2 cases of 2015 topps series one baseball and am getting ready to make up my sets and team lots. I know there are ''rainbow'' inserts in the 2015 topps, but i sure can't tell how to differentiate them. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks, dave

Yeah, try holding them up to the light, they should be pretty easy to spot.My Bucket: http://s1284.beta.photobucket.com/us...ghost/library/

I really wish Topps would identify the subsets on the back of the cards better when they are using the same numbering system as other sets. The codes on back but they are too small for some of us to see without pulling out the magnifying glass. The 2015 sparkles are sometimes hard to see and it would be nice if it said sparkle somewhere by the card number for example. I think I opened a pack with a rainbow card in it but I have no idea what it is because it doesn't say rainbow on it. Just one of my pet peeves lol.

On the back of each card on the bottom in very fine print there's a code with numbers ending in 861. If that number ends in 903 it should be a Sparkle SP.

Thanks for the reply. This site has an article with the codes but here is a summary.
Base Cards end in 861
Photo Variations end in 901
Sparkle Variations end in 903
The print is so small and my vision so bad I can't read them clearly without a magnifying glass lol.

The easiest way to spot an SP, regardless of retail or Hobby, is that SPs are almost always in between insert cards. For future reference, if there is a base card in between two inserts, it's an SP, it's just the way they are packed out. Saves a lot of time sorting if you know this going in, but if you don't, well, the codes are the easiest way to know for sure. At least with the sparkle sps. The Photo Sps are easier to spot, CCW has a visual checklist up. As for the rainbow parallels, I don't know what to tell everyone really. The backdrop on the cards have a refractor shine, like base cards from Platinum. If you can't see that, I don't really know how to help. Maybe an LED flashlight?My Bucket: http://s1284.beta.photobucket.com/us...ghost/library/
