Another unique type of insert that collectors like to collect is 2011 Topps Silk cards. These “cards” are actually mini pieces of silk with a depiction of their base card on the material. The piece of silk is then encapsulated in a frame and makes for a great collectible. The frame is serially numbered to 50. Although there are 660 cards in the base set, not all base cards have a silk counterpart. There are only 100 cards in the set which makes it possible for set collectors to collect this set if they so choose.
