Best Answer

The U-suffixed is added to the numbering on the back of the card to identify it as part of the 1991 Fleer Update set, and not the 1991 base set. Identical in design to the base set the Update set features players who switched teams during the season, as well as those who made their debuts.

How do you find out what kind of baseball cards you have?

If you mean what brand, than look on the back of the card, everywhere. You should find something that says Topps, or Upper Deck, or Fleer, or Goudey, or something like that. If you mean the name, it's on the front and back, and if you mean what date that look on the back of the card, look at the bottom, and then if you can see in really small letters it will say for example Topps 2004.


What does the affix U by the card number on a baseball card mean?

The "U" that precedes the number stands for Update on cards from the Fleer Update set. For example U25 would be the 25th card of the Update set. Traded or Update Sets are a set of cards, usually factory packaged, that features players who switched teams during the season, as well as those who made their debuts. Topps, who started this trend in 1981, is most well known for traded sets. Other companies also produce traded sets, although they refer to them by different names such as "Update" (Fleer) and "Rookie/Traded" (Score) sets.

What does RC mean wit football baseball cards?

On any sports card RC will mean rookie card. You also have XRC which are extended rookie cards. XRC were from extension sets that were released in the later half of the previous year, i.e. Topps Traded, Fleer update, etc. There was a time when XRC were worth less than the regular RC. Now with time older sets like the 80's the XRC's can be worth as much or even more than the "true" rookie cards. Of course, value is based on the player, condition of the card and if it's been professionally graded.
