Frequently asked
Who's 2021-22 Upper Deck SP Authentic for?
The deep end. People buy this chasing top rookie patch autos and legend signatures, and the price reflects it.
What's the main draw of 2021-22 SP Authentic?
Future Watch rookie autographs are the headliner. Cole Caufield, Jeremy Swayman, Trevor Zegras, and other top prospects all have signed cards in the set. You're guaranteed two autographs per box on average, so the odds of landing a rookie signature are solid.
How many autographs come in a typical box?
Two. One is a Future Watch rookie autograph, and the other is an additional autograph from either a veteran base card, an insert like Sign of the Times, or a premium card. Both are on-card, not stickers.
What are the base set parallels?
All 200 base cards (100 veterans and 100 Future Watch rookies) have three unsigned parallel tiers: Limited Red (1:2.5 packs), Limited Gold (/99), and Limited Black (1/1). The red parallels are the most common pull.
What's the Spectrum FX Bounty program?
It's a 99-card insert set split into four rarity levels. Collectors who complete the full set can redeem it for an exclusive card #100 that doesn't appear in packs. The first 50 people to finish also get a set of 100 Gold parallels and two surprise cards.
Are there any new inserts in 2021-22?
Yes. SP Holofoils (1:160 packs) are brand new and feature players against a hologram backdrop. Pageantry is another new insert highlighting top stars, with some autographed versions. SP Die-Cuts and SP Top Rookies also debut this year.
What's the difference between Sign of the Times single-signed and multi-signed cards?
Single-signed cards land 1:30 packs. Multi-signed versions have 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 player signatures and are serial-numbered to /25, /15, /10, /6, or /5 respectively. The more signatures, the scarcer the card.
Do all Future Watch rookies have autographs?
Not all, but the vast majority do. A few like Lane Pederson and David Farrance are non-autographed versions. The signed ones are numbered to 999 and come with on-card ink.
What veteran stars are in the base set?
The 100 veteran base cards include Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews, Sidney Crosby, Alex Ovechkin, Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, and other NHL superstars. Some also have Limited Autograph versions that land 1:60 packs.
When did 2021-22 Upper Deck SP Authentic come out?
It dropped April 19, 2023.
What's in a 2021-22 Upper Deck SP Authentic hobby box?
10 packs per box, 9 cards per pack. Case of 16 boxes.
