Topps Chrome Basketball offers up some of the most colorful inserts of the late 1990s. While base versions are typically somewhat common, their Refractor counterparts can be downright scarce. This 1998-99 Topps Chrome Apparitions Refractor Kobe Bryant is up front with its 088/100 serial number. But if you want to get a comparison to its rarity, one should also consider the odds. Base Apparitions inserts land 1:24 packs. To find any one of the 14-card set's Refractors, it's 1:1,015 packs. That's more than 40 regular copies for each Refractor.
