Vintage Card Term of the Day – High Series
A high series card is one that was released in a later series of baseball cards, for one year, with the numbered cards being the higher ones in the set. Cards were released in several series with the later series usually distributed in less quantity than the previous, lower series. Since these high series cards were generally distributed in less quantity, they are rarer, and therefore usually more valuable.
