This is the 1999 Metal Universe Precious Metal Gems Red, serial numbered 01/50—the first card off the line in one of the most coveted parallel sets of the ’90s.

Graded PSA 5, this is one of only seven copies slabbed by PSA:

• (2) PSA 8
• (2) PSA 7
• (2) PSA 6
• (1) PSA 5 — this copy

While others may have landed higher grades, this is serial number 01/50, making it the undisputed alpha of the run. I also own one of the two PSA 8s, meaning this card isn’t just rare—it’s part of a locked-down personal archive.

The design is late-90s chaos at its peak: steel textures, rivets, and a rainbow foil explosion that bleeds off the edges. The reverse side? Belle in full dominance—warming up, staring down, already dangerous.

For collectors, “PMG Red” means scarcity. But 01/50? That’s more than rare. That’s symbolic. It’s the card before the chase began.

And it’s not going anywhere.
