1998 Pinnacle Epix
Description
1998 Pinnacle Epix is a multi-tiered, multi-fractured, 72-card, cross-brand insert set. Randomly inserted in Pinnacle packs at the rate of one in 21, Score packs at 1:61 and Zenith packs at 1:11, the 24 players included in this set were featured in four versions to commemorate (in order of scarcity) a specific play, game, moment, and season. To obtain all the cards for each player in this fractured insert set, one had to open Pinnacle, Score and Zenith packs. A final selection of Epix cards was slated for inclusion in Pinnacle Certified, but the manufacturer went bankrupt before that product shipped.
Each card is available in three different colors: Orange, Purple, and Emerald. Approximately 70% of all Epix are Orange, 20% Purple, and 10% Emerald.
