Frequently asked

What are the key rookie cards in this set?

P.K. Subban (#218) and Taylor Hall (#222) are the marquee rookies, both appearing in the Quad Diamond Rookie Gems tier. Other notable 2010 draft class rookies include Jeff Skinner, Derek Stepan, and Jordan Eberle. The Quad Diamond Rookie Gems are the hardest to pull and most sought after.

Does this box have guaranteed autographs?

No. Black Diamond 2010-11 has no guaranteed autographs in the base product. The only autographs are the Jerseys Quad Onyx Autographs insert, which are extremely rare and serial numbered to 5. This makes it a set-building product rather than an auto-chase box.

How do the diamond tiers work?

The set is organized by diamond count. Single Diamond is the base tier (90 cards), followed by Double Diamond (40 cards), Triple Diamond (25 cards), and Quad Diamond (21 cards). Each tier has its own rookie subset. A typical box yields 6 Single, 3 Double, 3 Triple, and 1 Quad Diamond base card, plus 1 Quad Diamond Rookie Gem.

What are the parallel options?

Base cards come in Ruby (serial #/100), Gold (#/10), and Platinum (1/1). Jersey inserts have their own parallel structure: Ruby (#/50), Gold (#/25), and Onyx (#/10). The Platinum and 1/1 versions are the toughest pulls and most valuable.

What's the appeal of Black Diamond compared to other 2010-11 products?

Black Diamond focuses on beautiful diamond-themed design and set completion rather than autographs. It's aimed at collectors who enjoy building tiered base sets and chasing numbered parallels. The rookie gems and memorabilia cards add variety without the high cost of guaranteed-hit products.

Are there any bonus inserts in the box?

Yes. Each box includes a box topper bonus pack with a random Upper Deck Ice card. The Ice set is shared between Black Diamond and SPx, with cards serial numbered to 1999, 999, 499, or 99 depending on the card number.
